Still not done yet. Gotta flush this side then take the round over to it. Want to let the glue set overnight then I'll finish everything up tomorrow.

Today's work.

Got all the sub holes cut.

Shot of the ports from inside the box.

Time to flush & flare the ports from the outside.

After the flush bit.

I flare it in stages. First a 3/4" bit then two passes with the 1.5". Pictured here the center is flared 1.5" & the two outside ports are flared 3/4".

All three ports flared with the 1.5" bit.

Test fitting the subs.

The rest of the subs. As soon as I pick up a roll of speaker wire they'll all get installed.

The only thing left is the corner bracing and threaded rod. I started installing the threaded rod tonight but didn't get finished. All that will get done tomorrow.

Threaded rod and corner bracing installed.

A couple pics to shoe just how big these ports are.

Test fitting the box.
