Dash Rendar Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Feel free to ignore this thread and go here. Hi guys A local handyman has agreed to make me a pair of front speaker mounts according to the template here. I'm just brokering with him the idea of doing these in bulk, as I know there's a lot of demand on here for them and a lot of people (like me) who dont have the tools, skill, or maybe not the time, to do this themselves. I'm not sure what the price will be, but I suspect they will be over £40 a pair to make these worthwhile. I'm just trying to gauge interest at this stage, in order to tell my handyman how many he might have to do. If you are interested, could you please put your name on the list... 1.

hiten55 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 you'd better run this past the mods 1st mate as your not a trader. they may let you do it as a one off. also, do a search, i believe the last set in a group buy were cheaper and made of marine ply which is a lot more expensive then mdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epic Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 £25 - £30 n i would have thought about it but £40 is to much for me. so in the words of the draggons "Im out" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dash Rendar Posted January 6, 2008 Author Share Posted January 6, 2008 Oh, okay. Thanks for the tips. Didn't realise it was a trader thing. I did notice that the previous group buy was cheaper, but I also got the impression it was not cost effective, which is why no one else seems willing to take up the mantle and do another one. (I know enough people have asked for one.) Will get onto the mods now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I guess I should have read the instructions first...) I've already PMd Homer, but since you've already come along, feel free to say Yay or Nay, or whatever!

Sandy-m2 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 i would be interested but £40 is quite steep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickTT Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 If there is sufficient interest, i could do another group buy as long as its ok with the mods. Its only worth doing if I get at least 15 confirmed orders. I would have to re-check the price of the wood, but provisionally they would be the same price as last time.

Scott Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 How much were they last time? Scott =op Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickTT Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 They were £31 incl postage last time, even if the cost of the materials has gone up, they would be no more than £33. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash Rendar Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 Then I'm in! I doubt my guy would get anywhere near that price. TrickTT, will you be starting up another thread then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickTT Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I've pm'ed the mods, if its ok with them i'll put a thread up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
