finished my 8 foot long subwoofer today:



Used black mirrored plexiglas for the sides, then fabricated an aluminum one piece grille and wrapped it with black grille cloth



Here is the final product under my 110 inch projection screen. The subwoofers are the famous Obsidian 18" models that travel about 3 inches peak to peak




Washed the two electric scooters my neighbor gave me to use in our facility, then added plastic milk crate baskets to the back of them for hauling stuff. Had a good day off, as I usually do on Fridays....love that 4 day work week :clap:

Mailing off 14 copies of an anthology I'm in, to family and friends, and a box of birthday gifts to my sister.

Healing from a cough. No smoking for a day or two.

Had my brother-in-law and wife in from Reno all weekend. He's a HAM operator who has talked to all but 3 countries in the world. Went out to eat at a Hot Stone restaurant that brought out the steaks on a volcano rock at 400 degrees so every bite was hot, it is cooked rare, then the longer it stays on the rock, the more it's done...yummy :clap:

Today, I slept in, watched some Supernatural, watched the Lions play the Cowboys (Go Lions!), went out and ran some errands, stopped at a smoke shop and picked up some tobacco, tried it out when I got home, and now waiting to have a family meal. Great Sunday!!

Went to church, hung out with an old college friend, smoked a couple of bowls, and enjoyed the Fall weather in the porch. Relaxing all the way around.

Set up a lot of electric fence...need to clear some brush out before the horses get the run of the whole pasture. Really fun in the 8" of snow we just got that's melting!

Messed around on the computer, cleaned the house and spent quality time with the wife before the upcoming beginning of the month tobacco order. :worship:

Went to work, built 12 subwoofers ( 15" models ), waiting for a guy to show up to buy my 2500 watt PA amp I'm trying to sell, it weighs 72 lbs. I just bought a new one that weighs 7 lbs, same wattage.

Went to college, fretted about an essay, didn't do essay, smoked a bowl of Maltan, made impulsive purchase of 15-year-old Montecristo Especial No. 1 panatela, got in trouble with girlfriend for displaying more passion for pipes and cigars than for her.

so far - got a suit for my daughter's wedding. I'm now the proud owner of one suit. I got a big delivery of tobacco to store for my retirement and a shipment of 11 cases of wine which should see us through to the new year !!

Today after I got off of work, I bought my buddy his first pipe and smoked with him (it was his first bowl) and I'm glad to say I've recruited another young soul to our most loved hobby lol
