This speaker was made more or less from scrap wood for a friends Birthday.
After I dragged a speaker up a hill for a bonfire we were having – powering it with a a fist full of AA batteries – he simply said “I want one”.
A few weeks later this was made.
Since the first field test – which involved him taking it to a music festival, the lid/table was added and the final couple of coats of outdoor varnish were applied.
The table worked well in the second field test, protecting the speakers when in transit on a train journey and, during a beach party, it proved very useful in providing a flat surface for beverages. – During this test it was also found that the horn mouth could hold a total of 16 440ml beer cans – although carrying it was not the easiest feat.
From this I plan to make a couple more, probably smaller, version which will be for sale.
