Sometimes you just can't win for trying. I began to notice a strange distortion to the sound from the radio on my bench, and looked at the speaker. Along the outer edge it was developing a crack in the cone. Not really surprising. The cone was 86 years old. the fragility of the paper cones at that age is normal. This is not the first one I have had to re-cone. Fortunately there is a PERFECT replacement available from eBay : https://www.ebay.com/itm/333909714338?ss...2749.l2649
Here are pictures of the work in progress. I am waiting until the glue dries well before I do the final glue in of the cone to the basket...
