Quick box build for a XXX

[1ndatrunk 10+ year member]

I got this SS XXX15 recently, and tried my hand at reconing. This is my second try at it, the first had some coil rub on an 18 I did:verymad:.

I'm going 4.8cuft, and using a single 8" 'aero-ish' port. Its double baffled and flush mounted also. I know I'm a little small on port area, but I had this sitting around and used it.

I'm not expert box builder, so go easy on me. I think its a decent box for me being a newb to designing and construction. I'll get some vids up soon, and the dust has been cleaned off of the sub too. Anyway here are some pics.........

Thanks sir, I tried. I'm learning as I go along, and my next attempt will be a kerfed port. I'm scared to death

is that a bunch of 8awg wire twisted into something as thick as 1/0? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

I bought it from Woofercooker like that on a spool. Its from a company called Mobilspec. Its 9 or 10 runs of 8g braided into a single run. It works pretty well for me

looks allright for a quick build. Had some split wood though, should predrill the holes next time

I know. I was in a hurry. The next box will be bigger and better constructed

Not bad at all. Didnt look like you used one, but get yourself a router. Be a whole lot easier. Plus it would let you round over the port.

And when you get ready to sell the XXX, hit me up, I'll probably take it off your hands, and you wouldnt have to ship, since we live in the same place.

(you know you will end up sellling it).

I'll never sell it........ ok I lied. I already want some 1508s or a bunch of e8s. I'll let you know first before it hits the market. I planned on getting a router after the holidays, but I need another drill first. Halfway through this box my baby quit on me
