Santana 1 Altec Project Advice

I am glueing up the blocks, I hope to hit the lathe tomorrow, I went with poplar as it is not expensive and should be relatively easily worked.
I may just top mount them as the drivers are heavy.

I failed miserably with the lathe, but failed to injure myself seriously, and found some lovely posts here on Smithhorns and decided to have at that instead.
I built a 1200 hz and mounted it to a 34654 throat I had, and it sounds nice.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to locate another of these throats, so I am still at it but very slowly.
