whats the stuff in the black bottles?

The CMT stuff is a pitch remover to get gunk off saw blades, router bits etc.

Im heavily excessive on my wood glue, after every router pass I have to clean my bits bearing and cutting edge due to glue and sawdust build up on it which makes it not cut flush, gets hot, and dulls the blade.

The pitch remover cleans it off with ease.

Beat mode accomplished!

How do you like that Shop Fox fence?

Its a whole shopfox table saw, got it cheap brand new for something like 1300$ shipped from amazon.

Now its 1950-2000ish... decent hobbyist saw for sure. but i get it dirty a lot and needs to be cleaned well again since i do a lot of building on it.

That was a hell of a deal on that saw.

[Borris The Blade]

Perfection as always bro! What are you using the glue and saw dust mix for?

[Pasta Prime]

Filler maybe?

Time to start working on the baffles.

This first piece will be the template of the others to come. Didnt take a lot of pictures, just repeating that same process over and over.

test fitting inside the wall

also picked up some hardware to bolt the baffles in

and all out of wood once again..

ruff cut wood for the baffles that will be routered out with a flush trim bit to match the first piece.

had no template tape so I got some carpet tape, works ok just sticks way too well!

6 out of the 8 baffles made

trying to pry them apart was fun...

getting holes lined up for speaker holes

First couple sets of holes cut (flush and actual woofer cutout), the other 4 pieces will just be copied with the router and a flush trim bit

The gunk that builds up on a router bit and bearing after routing out a panel with glue oozing out of it, hence what the CMT Orange stuff is for which easily removes the gunk.

Baffles done

Did some finish sanding to remove the excessive glue

Rounded over the inside speaker holes.

Test fitting the assembled baffles in the truck, they are just loose sitting inside and not secured (same with the front walls).

Getting some angle iron cut to length for the baffles

Now its time to drill a lot of damn holes
