... and Caintuck Audio sells 'em; they probably don't "want" DIY knockoffs out there.

That said, since the driver dimensions (diameter) are, presumably EIA standard, it ought to be pretty easy to figure out the dimensions from photographs if you really want to build one.

Or just go with the JE Labs OB, which offers supreme flexibility (and probably better LF cutoff to boot).

EDIT: OK, I am now confused. Wild Burro Audio has a driver called the Betsy, but that also seems to be tied to the aforementioned Caintuck OB loudspeaker product. I assume that the question is about the latter(???).
I also note that DECWARE has a forum dedicated to "Betsy" (one or the other, or both): https://www.decware.com/cgi-bin/yabb22/YaBB.pl?board=randy

Two Three postscripts:
1) I see a price of $549 on the Caintuck website for the Betsys (FWIW).
2) If you're just curious about the baffle dimensions, I do apologize for my snark -- your posts sounds like you want to bypass Caintuck in acquiring a pair, though.
3) the "Bestsy" driver: http://www.wildburroaudio.com/speakers.php
