111 grillcloth cardboard frame.
#3

Those cross beams are what give the grill cloth its taught look. They are necessary. Crazy glue is not going to work on fibered thin board that has resistance on it in my opinion. If you were to use a thicker glue like elmers or even wood glue with a cross brace of a piece of scrap backer board that would make it stronger than just glue.

   

Then glue it all and put it between something flat and weigh it down for a day. Make sure you glue the scrap piece on the inside so it does not mess with the grill cloth. the speaker will cover it so no one will notice.

   

Thats how I have done it. If you don't have scrap board you could use whatever is around as long as it is thin and strong.
