Just as a general learning question for myself, does the wedge in the port really help to direct the air flow to the port?

im not 100% sure but it should help the aiflow because the two sides of air wud be hitting against eachother

so today i finished my kerfing :D no wood cracked or broke..i was a little worried it might happen but all came out good :D i added some 45s to brace the kerfs and sanded them down a little i will paint them separately and then add them to the box so i can get a better painting surface here's today's work. its a slow process as i do not have almost any time to work on this as much as i want to but patience is key :)
