Box Designs

[BuckyBoy 10+ year member]

If any of you guys are interested in a box design let me know. I enjoy messin around with the 3D Sketch programs. Just let me know what kinda dimensions you want and if you want a ported or sealed enclosure. I haven't did anything complex yet, but I will try anything.

Here is one I did earlier for myself...

and then another just messin around...

About to build a slot port for my friend's 15", haven't finalized the design yet. Maybe you want to mess around with this one:

Height = 15" Maximum

Width = 34.5" Maximum

Depth = 17" Variable, probably end up around 17"

Shooting for 3 cubes after vent and sub displacement (0.16 cu ft), maybe 34hz tuning.

Ok box designed lemme know if you like it. Took about less then 2 hours. I was bored =p. I have the *.SKP file to send you if you want it. Just need an e-mail where it can be sent. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smokin.gif.f1dc8d2acb1809e863ebd6a47eaa0d45.gif

Rofl I almost forgot to see if your sub would fit lol. Mounting dep is 6 1/2". I just check and you will have 1/16" between port on bottom and speaker magnet. Sweet it will fit.

That's not sufficient clearance //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

well if it didnt have a pole vent it wouldnt matter...

would it?

Thanks for the effort Rcnshoe but that exceeds the width. Have to stick too:

Height = 15" fixed

Width = 34.5" Fixed

Depth = 17" Variable, probably end up around 17"

It's a 15" sub too.

What direction for the sub is best in a trunk car where the seats don't fold down?

he'd better hope there is no pole vent lol

edit: whoops, someone already said it.

Here you go tsenfw...

Let me know if you need anything changed.

um... what exactly do you think the airspace and tuning of this box is?

He's looking for 3cf @ 34Hz, I hope you weren't shooting for those numbers...

That should help me from here on out. I was wonderin how to do slot ports. I was using the dimensions given for a round port for a slot port. I knew it didn't look right, but now I realize that was because it wasn't right. Oh well. That's one way to learn.

You've heard me say it before, so I don't have to preach to you Ion (obviously //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif ), but 3D design =/= enclosure design. Why won't people learn this? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

I'm just havin fun with the program. I may be wrong with the enclosure characteristics, but I'm still learning. Could one of you guys tell me the airspace of this box and what it is tuned to? I tried to get it how I wanted it, but I don't know exactly how to determine.

about 3.25cf net tuned to ~29Hz, but the port area is abysmal.

Like PV said, do not try to design in Sketchup, you will fail. All Sketchup is is a "make it into a pretty picture" program.
