While those were drying some more resin was applied to the box

Little cheat sheet I made up for each section of the box.

Port is coming together, these pieces are ready to be glued into one.

Am I crazy or does that spell JL

The pieces you see inside the cutout of the baffle will evetually be attached to the back of the port like a rear flare.

Thanks! Yeah that saw rocks. We used to use a p.o.s saw that took 5 minutes to set the fence for everycut and when your started it up the blade would wobble lol. This new saw easily cut the box build time in half if not more. I have lots more good pics I'll post later today :)

I decided to smooth out the creases of the port with bondo before I router it. This was my first time using bondo and it didn't turn out as good as I had planned but it will be sanded and eventually painted over.

The port is going to be interchangeable. The port will be bolted to the faceplate underneath it and can be removed and replace with a lower tuned port which will be attached the same way. This means the holes better be pretty darn straight and accurate so I took the faceplate to the nearest drill press.

The faceplate will have T-nuts on the backside so that the holes dont get stripped out from repeated changes using wood screws. The T-nuts will be counter-bored into the surface about 1/8" so that they are definitely below the surface after I pound them in and this will also create a place for the resin to gather. The resin will help keep them from pushing out the back.

Here I am boring the hole for the T-nut using the milling machine at my work. Gotta love job perks

Bolted down with a few sockethead cap screws to test the fit.

IMG_5106_zps17f41f4d.jpg

Time to resin the back of the faceplate. I put the capscrews in the threads with teflon tape around them so that the resin doesnt get all through the T-nut.

All done with the faceplate
