Terrific job Steve! Very nice for a small speaker. What is the wattage of that speaker? Also, could you have also hooked a battery along with the electrical input so that it could be used both ways (mobile & stationary)? Just curious. Finally, I am assuming that the speaker could also be used with a Lap Top Computer as the sound source. Love that Maple & Walnut combo, two of my favorite woods……. Thanks for the source info as well………… đ
Never knew that about the diagram on those power adapters great tip
Awesome work Steve! đđ
Awesome speaker box dude!!!!
Great job. I love it. Gonna have to add this to my "To Do List"
nice work man
This is fantastic – nice retro look with modern technology- yes it would be a great gift and addition to a work shop
Really great looking speaker! Smart thing you did there when cutting the strips all at once, I will try to remember that! đ
Great project Steve! That looks really nice' Thanks for sharing the video with us.đđJP
Nice build Steve it looks great, well done.

That's fantastic steve I love it thanks for sharing your work đ
Interesting that the bass ports are in the front, most Bluetooth speakers have them in the back. Very cool project!
Killer speaker! Nice video Steve
Great project, Steve! Thanks!
That came out great!
The trick to cut the 3 maple pieces was interesting, and you didn't even mention it. Cool project.
Two thumbs up on that one Steve. Great choice of wood.
