Dem bishes gonna be heavy. You might want to cut out some of the material in your baffles on the back side to give the speakers breathing room. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

what do you know?!

having the panels coupled to the door with bolts or whatnot would be nice, too.

The OP is probably better off that Fraze cant' be found, because his work is weak anyways. He did getlikeme's doors and they didn't feel sturdy at all.

Yeh I started off with using drywall screws then decided to throw a couple of little bolts in there too.

Heh when we first started talking his work was nice...then went down hill.

I mean take a round over or chamfer bit to the back side of your rings. With your rings as tall as they are, you might be choking your mids by blocking the back side of the cone. Opening the back side up will prevent that.

The smaller the mids, the more chamfering helps.

Usually the mounting holes are in-line with the basket's spokes, depending on the design, so I try to not chamfer those parts so that there's more wood for the screw to grab.

Awh shoot. Never even thought about that. Ill see what I can do fixing it wise with a dremel and sand paper. Thanks lol never even crossed my mind

Since they're already mounted, you can use a dremel to mimic chamfering.

Looks nice //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

How heavy are these door panels everyone makes, they seem like they would be quite heavy when done.

 

[I Like Waffle]

i made one using only MDF, and it weighed 5 lbs more than the factory door panel with 2 5.25 mids in each one. I assume glass would be lighter

 

[basebalz13 10+ year member]

They are a little heavy compared to factory. But not having any problems yet

 

[basebalz13 10+ year member]

Door panels arent done yet. But I need them back on so I can finish testing.

 

[basebalz13 10+ year member]

I think these will turn out great. Specially once I re-do the trucks actual paint job....will flow nicely.

Oh and btw Im restarting on the door panels.
