scissors

drill with bit (optional)

Step 2: Mark the Main Part
take the disk and outline two circles in your cardboard, make sure that your cardboard is large enough for two DVD's
Step 3: Cut It Out
cut the markings out with scissors, make it very neat and tidy
Step 4: Make Adjustments
make any and all adjustments according to the piece that holds your cardboard
Step 5: Cover the Cardboard in Silicon
cover the cardboard in silicon to hopefully give it a better sound and better look
Step 6: Cut Out the Surrounds on the Cloth and Glue Them to the Cardboard Pieces With Silicon

Step 7: Putting the Speaker Part on the Speaker Holder
once your silicon has dried, glue the entire speaker part to the speaker holder with silicon and let that dry
Step 8: Waterproof the Speaker

Step 9: Let It Dry
let it dry
Step 10: Trim It
