Woodturning - The Speaker

This weeks project, (which was supposed to be last weeks project but never got finished in time) is a Speaker made from Oak, the piece was removed from a much larger piece of oak as I thought it might make an interesting project.

The wood has been drying in the work shop for the last several months, however it still wasn't dry enough to finish without a little help from the oven.

The speaker used is made by TangBand, the T2-2136SA speaker was selected as its a totally self contained unit featuring its own passive radiator, meaning no calculations for me! Which allows the freedom to create whatever shape you want and only have to consider the mounting hole size.

The speaker is finished with Danish Oil coated several times over a week and left to dry for 24 hours between each coat.
