Cheap speaker stands
Solid wood would likely be fine but I certainly wouldn't use anything green (freshly cut). It'd also be relatively challenging to get a parallel top an bottom using only a chainsaw... unless you're like, one of those type of chainsaw guys.

I actually tried to send Shelly a message about it earlier in the week but was in a meeting and got asked a question and subsequently forgot.

^^^ Not going to happen As for this, I'll explore the possibility but next year is already full of work-required travel which is likely to severly limit my mobility in the "fun" sense. That said, if I went I might attend part of the event but it would be the reason that I traveled.

Monster Inspiration cable repair ?
Ahh, that explains it. And you're also right, the right tools for the job are going to be required to get even a half decent fix executed.

And now what did you do TODAY?
In case you thought I was kidding.

This. You need to take a DMM and figure it out for yourself. We'd just be guessing and that's as likely to be wrong as right. Well, maybe not exactly 50:50 but I can't be bothered to calculate the actual odds given the various scenarios. While it's not rocket science to fix them I'm not sure it can be done without some disassembly at the drive or trial and error. Otherwise you may wire the drivers out of phase. It does seem odd that at the exact puppy-chew-location that the grounds changed from separate to a single wire. And FYI - if you're going to copy and paste your exact post from HF you're not likely to find much help anywhere.

Trust me, Shelly, you don't want to go through the rabies protocol unless you really need to. 5 ER visits over 2 weeks and a needle each time is not fun, just from a wasted time perspective. Me - had the silly notion to watch TV tonight. Our X1/Comcast DVR kept throwing fits so I gave it the recommended reboot and now it won't connect to anything. Joy. So on a whim I called Comcast. They're so screwed they won't even take calls. It just has a short message that says something like, "We're sorry. We are currently experiencing higher call volumes than normal. Please try your call again later." Damn. I'm a glutton for punishment so I decided to see if their online chat function was working. Well, that at least let me enter a cue. Too bad there are, no shit, 1500+ people in front of me waiting to scream at someone. Or at least there were when I started typing this. I just looked, I'm now #1257, I'm sure it'll only be a few minutes before it's my turn...

Currently watching it spit snow and rain while working on projects around the house. And I'm pretty sure I just heard thunder... I think thunder snow is a precursor to a sharknado.

As you get ready to purchase don't forget http://www.geartrade.com/- it's the last bastion of deals from the likes of Steep and Cheap and Back Country as well as used gear from individuals. I've seen some pretty great deals go through there. This one might be worth looking at for you Jeff. http://www.geartrade.com/item/346525/arcteryx-needle-35nossize-large

Shelly, First, color me jealous of that rig. Just. So. Much. Awesome. Second, about the worst that would probably happen is some mild discoloration of the underside of the shelf. But that would probably take a lot of time. When I had a similar lack of space at work the underside of my shelf got slightly browned, but no worse and that was with 8-10hrs of continuous runtime. The 6SN7 is also not pumping out that much heat. If the data sheet I found is correct it's probably only trying to deal with ~4W (6.3V/.6A heater) but don't hold me to that. My DIY skills are eroding with time and it's been a while since I applied much, if any critical thinking to stuff like this.

NYC Metro Area Fall Meet in Stamford, CT November 15th
I was planning to try to make it but the family is travelling for the long weekend just prior so odds are that I will need/want to stay close to home unfortunately.
