This has absolutely nothing to do with outdoor power equipment, but I'm giving mowers a bit of a miss and doing something totally different to what you guys are used to seeing from me.
A full restoration of a set of "Celestion SL6" Speaker system.
I picked these up for $50 and they were in much the same state as my Verti-Cutter was prior to the Rise of the Phoenix thread.
I forgot to take any before shots but I'm sure you can picture what unloved timber looks like with damaged corners and bady scratched up outer surfaces.
Anyway here they are pictured below with only Sanding Sealer applied this morning before the weather turned ugly late today. They now need to be lightly sanded back with 800 grit and then timber finished in Satin using Feast Watson products.
After that I will need to recover the grilles as they had tears in them. They were originally in Brown material but I'm thinking I might do those in Black as Brown just looks a tad dated and even Celestion themselves changed to black later on during production of subsequent model SL series speakers. BTW the SL6 was the original version of this variant and now can fetch up to around $600 plus.
Tell me what you think as I'd like as many opinions as possible.
I live a 24 Hour lifestyle, but every now and again I seem to fall asleep, well at least that's what my wife tells me.
