Hi. Whenever I work on a Philco, I post here along with making videos. This Phorum is an invaluable resource and I'm grateful for the support and knowledge I've received.
As for the speaker, I plan on picking up a 6-ton shop press. Probably from Harbor Freight if I can find one in stock in my area.
Basically, the same as the jig Steve put together. I'm sure I'll find other uses for it to justify the investment.
