SnowDrifter Posted October 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 YessirGobs of hot glue to hold the dustcap down. If the POS epoxy holds, so be it. If not, it's easy to take this off so I can glue it up proper. If worst comes to worst and the recones are ruined because of the epoxy, I'm not repairing them. Don't have the money to throw at recones.

Dwn4BassAlan Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Lol you put that crappy epoxy on recones?!?!? Man, let the homeboys know before you risk a $130 recone, I would have gladly sent you some CA glue.

Everytime I see a guy driving a mini cooper I cant help but think he loves cock & (2/29/16)-My wife just bitched at me about throwing out things we don't really use. My response of well we don't really use your vagina so should we throw that out was evidently not the right response. I had to leave the room. I missed Alan. RIP 5/29/15 - I love you son.

SnowDrifter Posted November 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I have CA glue. Well... Now I do. The store I got the epoxy at said it was good epoxy and stronger than CA. I went with it, and the stuff won't harden. It just gells up. I got some CA online and when it cane in, I tried to chisel the spiders up off the landing so I could give them a proper glue job. Well they aren't coming up very easily and I don't want to force it and destroy new recones. So I decided to glue the surrounds and dustcap with something temporary - hot glue. I'm expecting the epoxy to fail and let the spiders pull of the landing. I don't want to fuss with trying to remove the dust cap to re-shim/re-glue down the road. So that's where I'm at right now. At this point the best thing that can happen is the spiders cleanly pull up off the landing so I can re-glue with CA ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted November 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Well.... The epoxy held better than I thought. I couldn't get it to rip off the landing Maybe it will take a few days? And to the guys asking about break in: I wouldn't tell you do to anything I wouldn't do myself. Get them moving a bit to knock the initial stiffness off the spiders then play them. No need for a separate break in process ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
