has anyone built their own speaker crossovers before?
Yes, bur it's been 30 years.
Wouldn't you just buy the crossovers, though?
Time to stop digging and start re-building.
A lot more work than I should, considering.
Let me know how it goes. I've toyed with the idea of building up some speakers and a tube amp to have something to do at work.
Fuckit tuesday accomplished. Did a little work, installed a new to me dropper, bled the dropper, got pissed at new dropper because SRAM bullshit, somehow fixed effing dropper to a workable shape, bled the dropper again, acquired brisket and put it in a slow cooker that I had bought for waxing chains, went for wicked a ride, discovered that new bike is moar fun that teenage sex when pointed down steep tight stuff, made myself a very potent G&T, now waiting for the brisket to do its thing while counting fucks I've given so far today.
Tomorrow: rinse and repeat, only the brisket will have been already cooked.

Afternoon every body.
Well, last few weeks have been somewhat crazy and busy. Between my work, wife's work, and my little side business I haven't made a lot of time for myself. We have three new officers that started yesterday, and at least five more to come, I have also added new stuff to our restraints and am working on training 50 plus officers on use and technique.
As for the side business, ffl application is just about ready to send in. They say it takes less than 60 days to be done so this will be fun.
As for everything else, my expedition is in need of a new engine, so we get to decide if I am doing a rebuild, or if we can afford to replace the old gal.
So much fun, I am gonna make tacos

See the HT thread in the DH quarters, a niner frame with 27.5 unrideabru wheels.new bike?
I solve this problem by only have two kinds of socks that are easy to differentiate.
I used to back on my car audio days. Cap and coil based on crossover frequencies, I'm sure there are charts and parts all over the internets since Radio Shack is all but empty last time I needed caps.
My wife bitched about my socks and went on a few different rampages and bought me all black socks. But I have Adidas, Nike, Puma, Body Glove, Champion, and Golden Toe. I am lucky to find 2 that match, but I have several that are the same thickness.
I remember that when I was a university student (~22/23 yo), I once realized I arrived in my part time job with one winter boot and one sneaker on. Let's say the party of the previous night was kinda hard core. Going back home was kinda difficult - I had to walk 3+kms on uneven height soles.
Shitty day was shitty.
I was going to have a salad or something dumb for dinner, but after seeing that picture of a svelte IRB I'm making brats and sauerkraut and beer. Burp.
edit: props AGAIN to @binary visions for this killer Maine Beer Company Mustard that he sent to me ... OMG it's the best.

i just wear my riding socks for work.
and dammit, @HAB the suloution is to not get one beer at a time, just bring the six- or four-pack with you.
Went to Thuper Awethum and to no surprise, the leaky brake felt a tad spongy. But it was just what I needed after 4.5 weeks off the bike. All's right with the world.
Last month the bongshed was converted to a vapor unit. The difference while riding was quite noticeable as I was not sucking wind like I expected to after not riding for so long.

Well obviously going to do that now. Just not much help when I'm having my first one (since lunch
)Girlfriend normally has that covered, but she's out of town.
Gah you guys and your beer fetching ideas..... You all have failed your single life......
GET A COUCH FRIDGE FOR YOUR BEER.
Your welcome

frustrating day at work. Vented on the trainer. holy leg and cardio burn Batman. 30 minutes of high speed spinning in a 53x17 gear. The last ten minutes were effing brutal....I am absolutely dripping in sweat. But I am 100% relaxed now. Beer, shower and sack in that order is what is left of my day.
Oh, they can bring you beer alright... and anger, grief, sadness, frustration, chronic insomnia. all wrapped up in one (or more) deceptively cute cuddly little package.Get married, have a couple kids - they can bring you beer.
Wait... that might not actually be good advice.
Perhaps consult with @slyfink prior to moving forward on this plan I've laid out...
You make it sound very appealing.
I only ever refrigerate my beer when it is hot out. I can usually just keep it wherever is in arm's reach.
I built a tube amp from a kit a while back. It was pretty easy to put together as long as you like huffing solder vapor. I really like the way it sounds but the source needs to have its own way of tone control. The 12 watts was more than enough to drive some massive old Technics speakers. You can run a tube at peak power with little to no clipping or distortion. A transistor based amp will clip and distort well before the dial gets to 11.
I have an old Phillco antique radio in the garage as a resto project, must be 75 years old. I intended on using the cabinet to house/hide some modern home audio & cable stuff, but it would be cool to preserve the original amp/tuner/sw if possible.
Did you read this:
I had leftover cheesy-hashbrown casserole with a couple sunnyside up fried eggs for lunch.Leftovers, FTMFW
