Very nice, are you going with Cork on the front baffle?
No, decent modelled cork is more expensive than some specialist veneers, which surprised me tbh so just going with the later black baffle version.
Weather is doing my head in, should have been finished a month ago. From eBay/ soundfix, £24 for 24 squares.I think I’m gonna be 3 or 4 months behind you with my similar project Frank . Can’t wait to see how these look once you’ve got the cherry on. Where did you get the foam from?
Hey Frank, do you want a pile of that studio foam stuff? I’ve got a stack about 4’ high in the cellar that you are more than welcome to when its safe to go out again. Its all got a few staple tears in it as it was from a studio, but other than needing some dust knocking out its fine.
Not original fabric-not sure where the original seller got it-it's not for listening though....The grills on the Mansfield are fixed to hardboard so I'd be wary getting that wet, they are Vynair which is a synthetic fabric so a foaming car upholstery cleaner should bring them up nice n clean but it's worth restating not to get the board wet-I'd try just a vacuum then damp cloth first tbh then dry with hairdryer to tighten the fabric..They look very nice indeed. Are those the original grilles/fabric?
I have recently acquired some 15" Mansfields from kevinrt via the classifieds here. Overall in great condition but the original fabric is showing it's age. My intention currently is to keep the Mansfields "stock" so tips on cleaning method would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.
