audiofanaticz Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Just some pictures of a box assembly I just finished building this morning for a guy.He has a dual 1ohm Ascendant Audio Mayhem 15, He will be running an AudioQue 3500.1 at .5ohms to the single woofer.Pretty much started off plotting the box design out on Term-Pro Enclosure software (left screen shows the box response, it changed a tad more with more tweaking to the box). Also had a couple other designs I was messing with for other boxes Cut my wood to ruff sizesBasic assembly startedCut some port spacersDry fitting portPort assembly (where the sexy happens) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofanaticz Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Gotta cut this down since its a little wide, normally Id use a round over bit, but I was after more of a peak or torpedo type shape vs a round over.Weighting down the port tip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audiofanaticz Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 A little bit of clean up sanding to remove excess gluePort gluingPort glued and nailed, with a little bit of weight to help hold it down tight since I have no clamps to reach that far into the boxFirst baffle already on, getting the 2nd baffle readyI use a lot of glue, my choice is Titebond 3. Always spread a good even coat, just pouring it on and assuming the pressure from the wood will spread it even is a no no.More weight while I let the glue cure a little bitThird partial baffle, just to give the woofer mounting screws a tad more to grab intoRounded over the outside edges with a 1/4inch round over bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofanaticz Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 How it will be once the other 2 baffles are routered outWent to work on a side braceGlued and nailed into placeStart of a brace for the back wall, top, and bottomTest fitDecided to make a rounded front edge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofanaticz Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Then hit both sides with a 1/4inch round over bitGlued and nailed in placeA smaller brace for the port wallAs if you havent been able to tell, I love lots of glue!Glued and nailed into placeSo here are some interior gut shots before I close it up, the 3rd partial baffle is just resting in place. It wont get glued and nailed until the top is on and the other 2 baffles are routered out so I can get it flush with the other holes.Top marked out and ready for glue and nailingMany passes with the router and the front 2 baffles are cut out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofanaticz Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 At this point I glued and nailed that 3rd partial baffle flush with the other holesRoutered the corners of the top and bottom to have the same curved radius, and sanded the dried extra glue off the sides.and completed... finally.

sweendog Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Looking good. That's a clean box, I like the 45s you did as part of the box on the outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
