Another speaker project moving toward conclusion. / myLot

OK, so my attempt to turn my speaker restoration into "great modern art" failed. I was "busted" by my MyLot friends (and enemas). . But I will have these JBL L-100s done within a couple of weeks. I will only charge $160 for the pair, as I am not in this for the money. I am dedicated to keeping the best loudspeakers from the 1960s and 1970s out there and providing music. The speaker on the bottom is totally sanded down and ready for oil. The one on the top is almost half-sanded, and needs only one more corner veneer replacement. I challenge you to see the veneer replacement that has already been done. It is in plain sight. I am working on another project today, but that one is kind of "gross," so I won't mention it here. How has your Wednesday been so far? By the way, do you think I should mount copies of my modern art in Dollar Tree frames and sell them for $1500 each? I could even autograph some of them and sell them of $15,000! I want to be a better businessman.

Wheee! Thanks! Actually, it could go viral if I put such a thing on eBay. I haven't sold anything on eBay in years!

As long as you're not price gouging.

@kaylachan Companies like Comcast and PG and E make me grumpy. But we somehow allowed virtual monopolies to emerge here.

LOL! Do you think any red-blooded American would do such a thing? We are a nation founded on Judeo-Christian values!

Wow! That's so big. We also have speaker for our radio, it has 2 tall speaker, one big rectangular speaker, 2 mini speaker, with one small rectangular speaker. And all them are still working, the problem is, when the other speaker works the others will not work, lol! I don't know - maybe it has problem with the wirings, or with the tuner. I don't know, I am tired fixing it actually.

You could have Kitty walk through the stain and walk that onto photo paper, put the paper in a frame and see how much you can get for it on eBay. You might be surprised!
