An Excel based Box Calculator

[altoncustomtech 10+ year member]

Okay guys, please don't rip on me too hard here. I have been trying to create a tool that could take some guess work out of trying to build boxes for certain areas and a quick way to see how an adjustment makes a difference on port length or anything like that. So here it is, I'm putting it out here for field testing. Put it through its paces. All the math seems to work out, please let me know if you find something that's not working.

And please keep the flaming to a minimum, I know it's basic but it's still a decent tool IMO.

Here ya go, we'll try this link first: http://www.mediafire.com/file/nwj0o0mjuji/Box Calculator.xls

Right now it's only for round, I'm working on making it cooperate for square and slot, but it's wanting to be difficult.

Thank you very much!

It sure has taken a while to get it to the point I felt good enough about it to have others try it.

Thanx guys, I'm working hard on it.... figuring the ports is the easy part, getting the port figured with the box sizes and such like it does for the round ports is where it's giving me fits.... I'll get it real soon....

IT'S DONE!!!!!!!!!!

Or at least it looks like it is, I have very limited experience using slot ports. However it seems to calculate out good. Give it a try guys and let me know if it's good or not.....

Bumpin' it again..... for those who haven't seen this yet it's a box calculator that helps you figure box sizes, tuning, and soon to have cut sizes all on the fly so that there's no refiguring and guessing its all available at a glance.... let me know what you guys think of this.....
