[QUOTE="Dafaseles, post: 8797411, member: 681482"] So, getting to the baffle. The subs are going to be inverted, so I wanted the cut out to be as tight on the surround without touching it as possible. I'm sure there's a smarter way to go about it, but this is what I did. Started off tracing the top of the sub into a board, and cutting it with my jigsaw. Then I screwed it to the sub, and used my router with a flush trim bit to make it nice and perfect[ATTACH type="full"]40116[/ATTACH] I was careful not to damage or punch the surround too much. Then I used my rabbiting bit to shrink the template ½" to adjust for the flush trim bit size. I used template tape to secure the template to the baffle, then started cutting out the holes[ATTACH type="full"]40117[/ATTACH] Glued the second piece to the bottom (I don't have a tall enough flush trim bit to do both pieces at the same time), drilled a hole, then cut the second piece. Came out good[ATTACH type="full"]40121[/ATTACH] And I rounded the edges for good measure[ATTACH type="full"]40122[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
