Very nice work on the new box man! I've always wanted to try using biscuits for added strength. Any luck on the kerfs? I was wanting to try out a kerf'ed birch box when I get my new sub.

Gonna try and kerf today...wish me luck lol first time trying it

Little advice, do quite a few practices on scraps before you do the big pieces. Helps a ton!

Yeah I need to add a kerf on the right rear so I'll have some practice.

That box is lookin sexy man, love the attention to detail as previously stated. I hope you decided to do a plexi front baffle, i plan on doin some plexi on my next box, thinking about these after everything I've seen on em, would be niceee to show off those sexy asses

Thanks! I just do not know how to mount the plexi on the front. I want the plexi to be flush sooo whatever thoughts you guys have let me know!

I've got a few that I drew up in sketchup once, kinda hard to explain my idea though :/

please attempt to explain lol!

DUDE! I have no idea how I missed this build. Holy shit you do clean work. I'm watchin now!

Your build just keeps getting better and better, love all the work and detail put into it. A little thing i learned from kerfing my box was that you have to go deep enough with the cut or the wood will snap.

Thank you for your kind words. I haven't been active and my build log is really cluttered. I'm waiting on a UBL to clean everything up!

Thanks what's your secret to cutting it far enough. Leave a 1/8" where you are going to bend the wood. Or should I cut it even more??

Dam those Z's are some beauties... And nice build progress.

Im not exactly sure how deep cause i used a cheap skill saw, but heres a picture of my cuts, i would also recomend reading the guide that is here on this forum he does a very good job explaining things.

thanks can't wait to get em in the box playing at full potential.

nice picture I watched that long ass youtube video on it thats a sticky in the fabrication section.

your cut looks like there is a little less than an 1/8" probably a 1/16" nice job!!

Can't wait to attempt it myself

Got out of the doctors looks like breaking my nose could have been more serious than I thought. Doc said that I could have broke my bones in my skull causing brain fluid to leak!! WTF, anyways finally got home around 10 and started kerfing. I did a practice piece then I went ahead and cut the real front piece. Here's pictures for all of you!

Thanks for following my build!

[HunterJohnson]

I think I'm not going to do a double kerf I dont have enough wood and It's not going to look clean at the end looking down the port if that makes sense. I'll 45 it like the original plan.

That looks great!
