Love those grommets. Exactly what I've been using for speaker holes.

I used them in my last project - came out really nice and they are so easy.  You don't have to treat the inside edge of the MDF at all.



I'm also planning to use Duratex paint on the outside of the top panel and the back panel.  That is the paint shown in this picture - very textured and when it is fully cured it creates a very hard shell.  It's supposed to be for speakers and I have a 1/2 gallon left over after building a bunch of speakers a couple of years ago and sine it is like $70/gallon I'm determined to use it up!

Those grommets are pretty clever javeryh.    :cheers:

I used these PVC vents from Menards for one of my builds.  You can find a lot of inspiration in the plumbing aisle.

Wow - great solution.  Next time I'm at Home Depot I'm going to take a look at plumbing - I bet there is a ton of usable stuff.

Plumbing is the worst but they have a lot of cool shapes you can work with.  I have a bunch of PVC flanges in different sizes I keep for routing templates. 

Sorry for the thread derail.
