Woodturning - The Speaker!

This week I turned a speaker! I've had this idea in my head for quite a while but I kept putting it off until I got my new mitre saw. The new saw made cutting the slot for the phone so much more clean and precise, however it did take me about 2 hours to work out a way of holding the speaker so it wouldn't come loose and get chewed up by the saw, but it was all totally worth it when I tested the speaker for the first time to find it really does amplify the sound. I was really surprised with how well it worked and I will definitely be making another soon.
The Zebrano feet have proven a bit controversial in my household, with most not liking them. I think I'll have to try something different next time.
The speaker is 140mm length by 85mm round at its widest point.
Let me know what you think!

Disclaimer:
My videos are for entertainment purposes only. I am still relatively new to woodturning and some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest. When using any tools or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines.
Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practise. The gloves I wear are tight fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT do anything you don’t feel comfortable doing.
