jack Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 I have been studying enclosure building for some time now and found this from the JL website many years ago, it still stands true, "THE JUMBO TEST Imagine, if you will, a rather bitter mid-sized African elephant named Jumbo (how original) that has been taking steroids and lifting religiously for the past 10 years. Jumbo's ex-girlfriend left him for a box (don't ask--because we don't know) and so every time Jumbo sees a box, he does his best to obliterate it. After building your enclosure, you should be able to place your box in front of Jumbo and let him tap dance on it all day long knowing that when Jumbo finally gives up (he never does) your enclosure will emerge unscathed. It sounds a bit extreme, but it's true: strength is key!" Now if 1" MDF is too expensive where you are, look into doubling up with 3/4" MDF. I just cover one sheet with wood glue and screw down the other sheet on top of it. I also clamp all around the board to make sure it is together 100%. nice Quote http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=29213 "sleeper build" (1) DC AUDIO Level4XL 10 (2) PowermasterD2700 batteries ALL FOR SALE TEAM DC AUDIO TEAM DIRTFLOORPOOR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
