How to Make a Wireless Speaker Cube

This wireless speaker cube was a snap to make using the Rockler Wireless Speaker Kit. The kit includes all the electronics you’ll need to create a speaker cube. The speaker includes a battery that lasts approx. 6 hours, and connects via Bluetooth. The kit also includes a USB charger cable. I chose a simple cube design, but so many options are open to this design. To attach the back control panel with the front panel there is a 6″ speaker wire.

If you make one of these be sure to post a picture of it over on the WoodLogger Facebook Page. I’d love to see how yours turns out.

Material List

(1) 2″ x 4″ x 4′ (I used pine for mine, but any material type would work well)

Cut List

(2) 2-3/4″ x 2-3/4″ x 2 3/4″

Milling & Assembly

	To get started on making my speaker cube. I used a piece of scrap 2×4 pine and cut it in to 2 equal lengths. I cut the lengths to a manageable length for now. Later I will cut that these down so that I have a perfect cube that is 2-3/4″ all around.
	Next up I glued the two boards together giving me a desirable thickness.
	Next, I cut my boards to have an equal length on all sides of 2-3/4″ in length.
	Next I drilled a hole through the center of the boards with a 1 7/8″ Forstner Bit. A spade bit would have worked well too.
	To finish my cube; I sanded it using three grits 60, 100, and 220. I then decided to stain mine using a red mahogany.
	The last step was to attach the speaker components front and back. These are held in place by simply using pressure. However, you could use epoxy to attach it permanently.
