I put my boat restoration experience to work to remodel my vintage (circa 1975) Sanusi SP-5500X speakers. I got them really cheap because the cabinets were so beat up, although everything inside was in great shape. I designed and built new cabinets to resemble an antique cathedral radio. Naturally, I made them out of mahogany.
