fudge these speaker towers to hell and back, x5.567 million infinity x 3 and a half point 7three6.

Can't cut 'em with a jigsaw because the sides stick out.  Can't use a router because the sticks stick out.  Can't file by hand because it's 3/4" plywood and it takes way to long.

I just bought one of those cylindrical domed rotary files for five bucks ... it damn well better work.  Looks like it should.  Off to try it now.

As Kent suggested they work well. Too bad you couldn't wait. I could send some along with the plexi. I have hundreds lying around along with new barrels.

I know a trick for your router as well if it is of the plunge variety, or you can set it fairly deep.

Well, they don't work on plywood. Slow speed, medium speed, high speed, don't work - press as hard as I can, don't work - vary the pressure, don't work - move the bit along the wood, don't work. I can see them working wonders on MDF.

As of right now, everything I just ordered is for sale. All I'm doing is hacking up the towers. The 7 inchers don't even fit on the baffle, they just sit on the two sides. I tried shaving some of it off, didn't work ... and now it looks like chit as there are two dips in the sides.

The 5.25's and tweet fit fine, but not the 7's. Not even close.

I need to find a good woodworkers message board.

My fudge I wish I had access to a bloody spindle sander ... I'd be done in a few minutes.

Well, I could get a Dremel or rotary tool, but that's even more money I don't want to spend. Besides, I'd go through a pallet of those little sanding bits - I'm sure they aren't very good for what I'm trying to do.

Clay is not going to melt in a vehicle. Temperatures exceeding 200*F, I think not.

Ill send you mine if you wanna pay shipping. But that might just cost the same as the actual dremel its self.

I think I've figured something out. Kind of ghetto, but it just might work. Pictures and an explanation after I build it and try it.
