1.8 ft^3 tuned to 33hz. This will be my first attempt at a kerffed port so we'll see how it goes //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

Not much to look at yet...

OK, so it's been slow going on this box. I've only been able to squeeze in a few min here and there but it's all starting to pay off.

Priming/painting the port...

looking good for sure, specially for a first time. I'm liking the box hanging from the ceiling for painting too, very nice setup. should look good when it is finished. Not sure if I like the white but I'll wait to see the final product.

 
Thanks //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Only the port and design will be white, the rest is just primer...

 
Nice work SPY, youve built some solid enclosures lately, shows some quality work skills there.

Looking foward to how this one turns out as well //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

 
Thanks //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Should be done soon...
