Decaf Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 (edited) this is what i would do with 1" dowel rods are you using allthread or dowel rods if dowel rods, i made them intersect as much as possible since it makes the whole box stronger if ur not gonna use resin edit* id love a birds eye view, would help to see if vertical supports can span bottom to top since it looks like the box is port up sub up in a suv maybe?

takenotes101 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 sub has a 9.25" mounting depth btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decaf Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 birds eye/top view..? umm still would work just lower... and if ur using allthread you might as well run the pieces all the way thru each panel since you cant really tie the allthread together, each rod is only as strong as it by itself if your flush mounting the sub, might want to add another baffle so there is at least two baffles for the screws/tnuts to bite into/and support what sub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

takenotes101 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 i think im just going to do 1" wooden dowels. so this would be fine wouldnt it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightshade Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 I would do 1 1/2" dowels instead of 1". I use that in my boxes and will have pics up very shortly of a new box build for a pair of 15's using the 1 1/2" oak dowel.
