Speaker repair
  remove old speaker cone, clean frame, shim the spider to prevent gluing it in place, apply glue to both surfaces.
Add cone and put the cardboard surround on. Clamp and let dry.. I used contact cement but the cone did not like that.. It started warping.. Tacky glue is better but mine had frozen Icon_rolleyes

  Then test it and if it works you dance in your seat...
