pa-pa-platypus Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 usually what i do is predrill everything and sorta of do a "moc up" then run a good bead of glue down and clamp everything together and run my screws in This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP. Put the work in and then maybe get the respect when it has been earned 151.6 with single 12 at 41 hz 153.2 with 2 12's at 43 hz power: dd m4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pa-pa-platypus Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 screws while the glue is drying... run bead of glue..clamp wood back in place where it was when predrilling..then run screw in..thats how ive always done it never had problems This isn't teeball.

SlamminBeats Posted December 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Right on, my box is most likely going to resemble the one example posted in here, not going to use the thread rods because of the port placement, going to use the wood dowels or 2x4's in a similar manner as above.

mlstrass Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 resin inside a box is for smoothness, does nothing to add strength. And you'd need a good baseline test, then add the resin and sand smooth to see if it's worth the time and $$$... I've done wooden window bracing and had good luck with that as it ties 4 sides together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlamminBeats Posted December 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 i have a feeling this wooden bracing is gonna ruin my already limited air space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decaf Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 if you use square wooden dowel it should take up less than .1cuft you can always invert subs for airspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmedina Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 i havent messed with bracing so far in my boxes just doubled up wood. but how would you calculate the displacement for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carshateme Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 i havent messed with bracing so far in my boxes just doubled up wood. but how would you calculate the displacement for them? Oh this is simple...just get the volume from the height x width x depth...from the brace...just subtract it from the final volume. I do that when I have to work around wheel wells. EX. Let's say you use 1x1 for a brace....(which I do...because it's cheap =X) all I do is measure the distance...and for this example...18.5" long.... 1 x 1 x 18.5 = 0.011 ft3 New build coming soon.
