37-61 rubber parts questions
#5

Yes, I bought and replaced the rubber mounts for the tuning section. They are already installed. I am getting all the stuff ready to finish with the cabinet and final re-assembly. Before I can really go forward with the cabinet, though, I have to wait for warmer weather. I keep my house at 60F in the winter, and it is really too cold to varnish. I will wait until spring and warmer weather for that. So, right now I am getting everything ready. Tonight I am going to make a spacer ring for my speaker because the new cone's web rises a bit above the frame of the speaker, and the speaker needs to be spaced about 1/4" back from the board that holds the grill cloth so it does not distort.
