Oh man that stinks
I would go to an autoparts store and get a structural epoxy they use to bond metals. You have nothing to loose. Short of welding you are out of luck.
Good Luck

Thank you Rob.

Yea, the other concern I have is there is limited frame to ensure you will get an air-tight seal with the baffle.
Beautiful job on the re-surround! In future, remember that MEK, while dangerous, is a wonderful solvent that can be quite a help when old glue - and new too - get's messy and needs cleaning-up.

"Indeed, not!!"
Thank`s Bo,
I have to read some messages a lot to understand, but i remember !!
Did someone refoamed "cloth surrounds" ?
The surrounds of my old (25 years) 2205A are still working
but dry.
Is it time to resourround them ?? What do you think?
I think no.
Thankīs Eckhard

I don't know. I've not done any of the cloth surrounds I've come across - they were all in good condition. If you think your 2205's are out of specification, maybe Giskard, Rob, Earl, GordonW or someone else more experienced than I am could better answer this question.

While it's true that aluminum can be welded, the chances of success with thin cast aluminum are virtually nil.
It'll smoke the foam and rubber, of course, as well.
Start over, maybe?
OR, just a frame?
Yes Bo,
Of course they are out of spec.
But there is no great change working in my 4530 i think.
Maybe there is a change working in my "Bandpass enclosures".
Is it the right explain? Understand?
Eckhard
What`s your name zilch?,
Doen`t understand your answer, sorry.
But you want, that i buy another LE10 and refoame this.
Yes, thatīs a clue.
Sending from America is very expensieve.
Will see.
Eckhard
Understand !
We have a Laser welding machine in our factory.
Maybe they can fix it.
We fix and polish CD,DVD mould parts in our factory.
Maybe it works.
Thank`s Eckhard
So, if you have something to laser welding, youst let me know.
And we can also (grind ?) it.
Doen`t know the price and time, youst ask.
Eckhard
Well, i ask a german (friend)?,
Guido, what do you think about old cloth surrounds ??
Eckhard
Look this,
It`s an Rcf i bought youst now, what do you think?
Very good speaker, Alu Frame, Double half roll clotht sourround,
heavy iron magnet, 7mm pole plate, 6mm baxk plate,opening at the back. Looks like never used.

I do not think you would have any luck welding that LE10 with the cone assembly in there,plus the heat would warp the frame as well. I would also try the JB weld epoxy. Also when you install the woofer on the baffle board put a nice fat bead of latex chalking on the baffle board and sink the woofer into it. Wipe off the chalk that oozes out of the frame and you should get a good seal. By the way what is your intended use for those,share some details with us on this forum.
Yes John, i will do so.
