Is it just me or do the "legs" the piece that is angled near the left and the right look more angled in the pic than in the build. I dunno though as I am relatively inexperience on building complex boxes. The cuts look good for what you have, as I have a table saw and can't cut worth shit. I bought a new table saw with the fence on a rack so the top and bottom are always straight.

Good luck and I hope the customer enjoys it.

might be you..

according to the printed design (there were 7 pages total) the space between the end of the first angled piece, and the outer wall was 3.2 inches. I uses 3.2 inch blocks to hold that wall in place, while the glue dried.

gotta remember as well, the build is much larger than the pic, and you will get that effect.

True....It also looks as if yours can tighten down independantly...for example it would still do a 90* if one piece was bigger/thicker (read double baffle) than the other, a definite plus I didn't think about. I use these:

It is good for "auto centering" @90*

Also, here is a link for that table saw:

If you didn't know/couldn't guess I also work for Lowe's.

Take asemi-conical folded rear horn like the “snail shell”, for

instance; in most of them, the effective horn length averages roughly 65

inches so, according to that forum’s take on horns, most snail

shells are in fact designed to reproduce mid-bass. At any rate, I do hope

you enjoy the sound quality, response, and the output of your design.

oh, well, you can compare your "design" to an SS if you want, but everyone who has made one based on some plans that were going around were extremely disapointed by the output after all the hype people were making about them.

not to mention the fact that all the videos of the SS would strongly suggest that they are no louder than a normal ported box anyway...

which is exactly what I said the "horn" (lol, how can you even call it that and keep a straight face?) in this thread, will act like a ported box, and nothing more...

the end... I guess time well tell...

hell, why dont you design a "horn" (lol) for the woofers that MM is going to make some real horns for, and he can make both and compare?

Plans for folded pipes are available at many places...DIYAudio has an excellent section for full range drivers.

True Voigts aren't very good designs, but folded they do much better //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif With those 8" drivers, phase plugs would probably be a really good idea...

I couldn't find any designs on the http://www.diyaudio.com site, but I am not really sure where to look.
