snailshell plans *PICS*

i found this design on the web, and i was wondering how good it is.

i know absolutly nothing about these types of designs. i would like to learn how they work, so if someone could elaborate a little it would be great....at least if this design is anywhere near accurate...

I read they are tweaked per the driver T/S. if you have excel, i have something for you.

Piece of cake, compared to a "real" folded horn or transmission line.

the hardest thing to do would be that rounded edge, and with the right tools, even that's not hard.

All the measurements are there, all you have to do is mark and cut.

CUSTOMIZING it to fit your Sub is that hard part.

eh, not that hard, just get the angles right thats the hard part, use a router to cut dados in for the port walls that would be hard //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

so does it look like it would work???

Well,

It would work,

But I don't see any height measurements //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i am also wondering how you plan on making this without height measurments.

 

[JimJ 5,000+ posts]

Another problem I see, unless I'm blind and I missed it, is that there's no cutout for the driver. In a design like this, you really need to know where to mount the driver to get the line length right...

So basically what everyone who's built them is saying it ain't that great b/c it is completly drive dependent and you have no height measurements or where to put the sub.
