Just watched both vid's, in reverse order, of course... Nice job. If anyone wants to try this for themselves, follow these vid's exactly, with one additional step.. Once the cone is cut to size, lay it flat onto a hard surface, concrete, marble, etc. Grab mom's best rolling pin, and run it over the cone material a few times. This makes the material a little less rigid, expands the frequency response, a slightly "warmer" sound.
Not that it's going to help you right now but,... If you ever need felt, they sell it in the hobby section at Walmart. With or without adhesive. They also sell sheets of 1/8in foam padding with or without adhesive on one side. You cut it to the shape you want then peel & stick.
This looks like an amazingly hard tedious job!
Where's the fun in that???,,,, LOL, Love it,,,, :),,, Nice job
Thanks Terence, my first attempt at making a DYI video.

That is one great idea! I'm putting that on file for my next re-cone job. Thanks!

Thanks Ronnie, I'll remember that!
