Like Caddie Build

Sold the BLs, so doing one 15" BTL for now. Original plans were 5 cubes @ 29hz, but thanks to me trusting home depot, it will end up 4.5cubes @ 31hz. This box is just something to have, no carpet or paint.

The home depot wood, that should all be 48" wide, but they like to make them different cuts


All the wood cut..



Port Wall together...



Still waiting on a recone and basket if anyone at Fi every emails me back...but the BTL motor compared to a Sundown SD-1

I live by you, in Largo if you need any help looks like a good start. waiting to see more pics, Also always wanted to hear a Fi. Do you go to Quaker Steak and Lube? on Wendsdays I think. I have been out there a few times and they have been a few other bass heads out there.

Home Depot always fails at cutting wood, I just have them cut it 32-3 inchs to long and use my table say.

Nice

But be patient with Fi, they havent forgot about you

I used to go to Quaker alot, it's a bunch of immature kids that know jack **** about audio, really I got tired of it so I don't go out there anymore. I actually was out there last week and sold my subs though.

Actually I bought the 24x48 and 16x48 pieces of wood from there, hoping they were cut to length.

Pics of it being built... BTW anyone that doesn't have clamps or access to a nail gun, I HIGHLY reccomend these screws, they countersink and predrill by them selves, can't ask for much for in a screw.




Not sure how you guys space your ports perfectly, but I just cut some small pieces the exact width of the port and place them in and screw the port.


Flush trim bits FTW...

Also another trick I use... I put on the back last so when I router everything out, all the saw dust falls right out, instead of having to vaccum it all out behind the port n ish.

I have been trying to get the word out about those screws as well, they kick a[I]s[I]s. looks good also. Hell are there any other local places where they have carshows ?

were they short or long? usually boards run about an inch long because its assumed they will be cut.
