how did you cut the double baffle? use a saber saw or what? nice box.

that resin should be a nice touch.

 

[XORstatus 10+ year member]

I used a jig saw, it TOOK FOREVER!!! Plus I ran into screws that held the "rear" baffle in originally. Only had one jig blade so I had to drill those out.

All in all worked out pretty nicely, its been a while since I made a NICE box with dual baffle and resin and other emenities, I FORGOT HOW HEAVY these things are with all the extras. Ive just built so-so boxes recently.

Im also contemplating putting 45 angle by the rear corner of the box where the port is, do you guys think that wll make a difference or am I being too persnickety?

The box needs internal bracing and the port opening looks too small.

UPDATE:

First coat of resin

The box needs internal bracing and the port opening looks too small.

Memphis recommends 30 sq in of port area. I made that decision on their recommendations.

Im not saying that they are completely correct, just giving you and Idea of how/where I started.

Why do you think the port is too small?

Im not implying that your wrong, just interested in getting a more holistic ideal.

I was thinking of supports but I don't know the rule or guide lines of their distribution.

If you have any Ideas about it would you please share them?

AS ALWAYS thank you for the critiques.
