And to think, you turned down a set of these many moons ago, and your veil could have been parted as well.

Now you're just all veily.

I wasn't planning on going into production with them, I just figured I'd post to give others such as yourself some ideas... \:\)


What if our idea is, unanimously, for you to go into production with them?

They look beautiful, Mark, like everything else you've custom-built for your home theater.

Very nice Mark, excellent work.

I was planning on trying something along those lines. Unfortunately, with limited tools, skill, time and the HG Cherry finish I just decided to break the bank instead. Good on you for coming up with an excellent solution that should be much more cost effective. Get ready for all your orders!

Thanks Hay (and others)!

I can't claim that making these myself was cost-effective. The two spike sets were around $50 (Parts Express) and a couple of maple blanks were somewhere between $20-$25.

I also put in probably 4 hours labor so far, and will put in more to finish them.

Plus, I kinda bought a jointer and spindle sander for this project which added abother $700... \:\)

I just enjoy woodworking and liked the idea of them being wood, custom fit to the angle of taper from front to back. etc... Unfortunately, it took me a month from jointing the blanks smooth.....



to get to where I was yesterday, and it'll probably take me two weeks to where I can remove them and finish them!

I'll second that.

I'm seriously considering buying my dad a table saw for Christmas. Of course, I'll be using it all the time. . .
