hi,

having had a bit of time off after having been made redundant I desided to build some speakes while wating to start new job. hears a pick of what I done total cost to date £18 so far per side they are made from 2 20cm wood bowls one chopping boarded and a stainless light stand per side all thats left to do is varnish and put the speakers cones in.

Are you going to make a coffee table out of the engine block in the corner of your room next

Nice work Blake. Proper locost.

Just out of curiosity, do you live on your own? Couldn't help but notice the engine block in the corner of the room. You're either single or have a very understanding partner

hi there,

I consider my self very lucky its a RV8 block and Caroline my other half helped me stripp it as a learning project about engines and we now use it as a wine rack if you look there is one bottle in the bank you can see and 4 on the other side however we are low on wine at the moment. I think its just going to stay as a wine rack as it is im sorting out some glass to go on the top as a shelf

Blake

eh?! another blake? there seems to be a few of us on this site...

mmm V8 coffee table

Excellent idea V8 wine rack!!

I was looking for a v12 for a while but I cant find a v12 block for a resnoble price
