Cut some strips of 3/8 Baltic 1.75 inches wide and glued them around the mouth, with the inside edge rostered over. Looks a little beefier now to match how they sound 😁 Wheels on the back bottom edge, black plastic corners all around. Another coat of duratex on them both. V-plate tee nuts in and sandwiched between the sides and new strips. V-plate is duratexed and has the larger tee nuts in as bushings. Should be all ready for the block party on Saturday now.

Yep, already kicking myself for not cutting the front handles in. It's on the list to be done soon.

Finally took the took the time to open my t30s back up and connect all 4 speakons. Used a couple hanger bolts with wing nuts to connect the leads along with another short lead going to the driver. Now I can mix and match between between any of the cabinet inputs depending upon how and where I set them up. Should of done this ages ago. Oh well, better late than never.
