Thanks dark night
Darknight, do you own a shop or something? your system setup look really impressive.

 

Nice, just be careful with that circle cutter... trust Its harder to control than you may think. But that is a nice kit! I love Craftsman tools! Free replacement tools are the best!

 

thanks for the advice, i was anticipating it'd be a tricky tool to get used to -- and for $50, it seems like a great deal. i'll probably wait till the next 10% off day for Craftsman Club members...


and yes, i do have a tendancy to buy Craftsman... they've been great for me.

 

Thanks for you kind comments. My brother and I do all the work pretty much self taught. We practice different things and ways of doing things. We read about new techniques and give them a try... course that all costs money but its a work in progress.

If you have any questions just let me know I'll try and help you if I can.

But I will tell you this, buy the right tool for the right job and if you have to spend a little extra to get the little bit better one, do it... you'll never regret it.

 

They've been great to me us as well.

 

i use a jigsaw. though not the perfect circle, the driver fits in with a bit of trial and error. heh.

 

If you are going to regularly make holes for loudspeakers in wood, you can't do better than a good plunge router with a straight 1/4" bit and a Jasper Jig. Cuts absolutely perfect holes or insets in 1/16" increments. It is also childsplay to flush mount drivers using this combo. Very professional results quickly with little fixturing required.

 

That Jasper jig looks very interesting... I may have to order on of those and give it a try.
Thanks for the link!!

 

I got one of them in my stocking! Just make sure you get the Model 200 which will cut holes 2 1/4" - 18 3/16". Unless you need to cut 1" holes. If you need 1" holes then you will need both.

 

Did you really Jim?? That's
