Ah...I thought you just lacked the woodworking skills.
But don't you already have a pair of original 4338's? Can't you make a casting mold with them as a base?

I wouldn't risk it. I'm currently trying to come up with a decent grille design for my H4338's so they are protected from kids.
The only two tasks that I have left in this thread (that I am aware of) are measuring Dan's horn and measuring the 2446 with the Truextent diaphragm on the 2311 or H93 horn with the 4355 network.
Belated thanks for the great new info posted here, such as the FR of the TAD 4001 with EQ. Since my living room system includes the 1601a and TD-4001 on TAD clone horns, this greatly interests me!
I would very much like to get my hands on a pair of those horns. Maybe the combined talents of the Toledo group could eventually produce them in wood. But to be honest, I would have to hear sonic advantages over the radial wood horns before diving into that project...

Yep. They aren't for everyone.
The H4338 and 1400 Array/SAM1HF horns are very similar in performance. The wonderful thing about the SAM1HF is that one can actually buy it here in the U.S. I don't know what the hell JBL was thinking making it available here, maybe someone goofed.
Here's a photo I found of them mounted in some enclosures.
I could do that. I would either need some good drawings/dimensions/radii or a physical example to reverse engineer.

Perhaps something like this Laser scanner could get the job done with little investment and even less worry.

No doubt there is some complexity within the throat. Notice there is a slot that is narrower than the throat of the driver. I would guess then that the sides are expanding faster than the top and bottom coming together while transitioning from round to ~rectangular. That is one of the difficult areas, the other being getting a nice veneer pattern on the compound curves of the mouth.
The rest is fairly easy.

Yes, I had that in my file here, but wasn't about to repost it.
It's not about me, and it never was; I only ever showed what others could do, that they might, if they wanted to.
We are very much alike in this respect, and it has worked out well. I hold you personally responsible for this....
Yeah, lets see that diaphragm performance measured at Zilchlabs...maybe with the CLIO wavelets????.....would be nice to see it both on a 90x40 wave guide and a 2380 horn w/the 2445?....
I thought that request was quite peculiar myself... I don't think it was meant to trivialize your work, I think it was posted out of ignorance. The assumption being, it would be interesting to see what these diaphragms do in a more familiar driver and affordable horn.
I think most of us who work with a variety of horns and drivers can make great use of the information posted on this thread... unfortunately not everyone gets it.
