I absolutely love it. Much easier to work with whole sheets and make perfect repeatable cuts than a job site tablesaw (what I've used for years).

RenegadeDan Posted December 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 Well, final construction is done. Just going to let the glue cure overnight before I flush trim the back side, but then she'll be ready for some orange dye and polyurethane! I'm extremely happy with how the box has turned out (especially the port). Oh, and the 9" hole in the front is the viewing window. Everyone does square/rectangular windows, so I wanted to do something different. Also need to buy some LED's to put inside the box. I can't decide whether I want to paint the inside white, or just poly it and leave it a natural finish. Suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeDan Posted December 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 It's official... Keda wood dye is my new favorite thing to work with. Absolutely love the color, and I don't even have poly on yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmacjack Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 man this build just gets better and better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeDan Posted December 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Just wait until the port gets painted black, and it gets a couple.coats of high gloss polyurethane on the box. It'll look 100x better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsneon98 Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 damn man that box really popped with the stain! And I love my kreg rip guide too. Makes ripping a 8ft panel so easy. I can imagine making all those kerf cuts took some time and careful lining up!

YukonXL04 Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Looking good man. I like the port! Would have liked to see a flush 2nd baffle. And maybe a little bracing inside the box. 18 Sierra 6.2 Z71 : 3 F8L's, DD M2a @.67, 1.95@33 05 TL build log SOLD 04 YukonXL : jvc kw-v51bt , RE 6.5c, 4 jbl gt5 12s, Memphis pr1000.1 5.5 cu.ft. sealed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
