Airborne Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 great idea with the baffle! I'm sure it just takes practice. I have thought about the solid copper idea for wires too. Good work man/// Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro7 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 That's some awesome sub wires! Haha how do you get that basically copper rod to bend? Or is it just that malleable?

KingPepsi Posted November 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 That's some awesome sub wires! Haha how do you get that basically copper rod to bend? Or is it just that malleable? Its bare copper ground wire so its pretty easy to bend. I use my brake line bender for the tighter radius'. This signature intentionally left blank.

scooter99 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 How are you going to keep them from touching? Oh you said clear heat shrink didn't you? Love the idea! Facebook Page: S99Creations 2006 F250 Lariat Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColumbusJBR Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Looks good! Love the solid copper. Just curious as I've never worked with it, what sucks so bad about working with the acrylic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingPepsi Posted November 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Looks good! Love the solid copper. Just curious as I've never worked with it, what sucks so bad about working with the acrylic? Well with those two pieces costing me roughly 120 bux, every hole and every cut made me nervous. It just takes a ton of time. I could only cut about 1/8" at a time with the router so the woofer holes alone took me almost 3 hours to cut. Then there's the screw holes, the counter sinking, all the processes each one with its own set of issues. Dont melt it, dont push the bit too hard or it will crack. Its just very time consuming. Not to mention trying not to scratch it haha even with the protective paper on it, it still scratches. This signature intentionally left blank.
