Creating loudspeakers with enclosures made of linoleum
At your risk. Please take all safety precausions.
3 Ply glued together 9ike plywood) with PVA glue would give 7.5mm thickness.
45 angles could be cut with an Olfa 45 degree cutter to create a good looking enclosure.
A circular hole can be made with an Olfa circular cutter.
It may be time comsuming to make.
But theoreticaly it can be made on a beach.
Linoleum has good vibration absorption qualities. This is easy to verify if one hits it outdoors by hand and compare the sound to the ringing of wood. Even by eye it can be see how quickly the flexing vibration is damped.
The plylinoleum could be used for making a baffle speaker. If the one drive unit sounds agreesive it can be tamed with someting like 1mH inductor in series. If treble is lacking then a variable resistor can be connected in parallel with said inductor until the loudspeaker sounds similar to reference headpho0nes such as sennheiser HD580.
