Aero Port Gap Question

[LuvnThatBass 10+ year member]

Google wasn't much help as I couldn't find help to my question.

What do you suggest using to fill the gap between the aero tube and the wood cutout? Especially if there are additional pieces of wood used to rise up the port further out of the box, there is a large gap that is empty space.

If i am not being clear, let me know and I will post of picture of what I am referring to.

I may not be understanding but I use this between the aeroport and the box to get a seal.

I just had the same problem. I needed to double up my wood (1 1/2"), and used a jigsaw at a 45 to cut out the aeroport hole. there was a big gap because the aeroport is a curved 45. I just used half a tube of liquid nails to fill the gap.

Nothing because it's going to be too hard to get out of the box and re-use on another box when I want to or adjust the length when I want to.

Cut the hole small and then sand it until it is the right size. Then use silicone caulk. Shouldn't be a big gap..
