AP Zoutes Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 very, nice Steve. How deep are the cuts on the port bends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s1795so2 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 they are probably 5/8", I am pretty sure that is how deep you usually need to go for 3/4", but every app is diff but 5/8 usually is a good place to start for the kerf cuts. -Steven- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sean 371 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Can I ask how many cubes? It looks around 2 cubes per sub. But thats just eyeballing it.

meade916 Posted March 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Sean has a GREAT eye it is 2.1 cubes net each side.....tuned to 34hz on the cuts, i dont know if they are 5/8" deep.....i just know they are almost all the way thru. I would have flared the front as well but it only has just enough room for the subs on the face so that was out. I will of course round the port off with a router so it should be fine. Subs will be countersunk also.... Bibb: nahh not tinkering too much, i did move it out of the spot its in and out front for a little bath though. Hit a few switches to keep it all loose....then put it back. Had to move it out of the way to trash out my back yard on saturday. Good eye, it was chillin LA style all weekend.......

AlpineGuy87 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 STEVE!! Thats sweet man!! LOVE the flares!! I think i might wait a month or so before my new box, maybe some more ideas from your genious head will pop out!? Question for you.. do you use only Wood glue? No Screws? I noticed the amounts of glue, i didnt notice any screws... just wondering cuz i got like 5 pounds of screws in my box.. lol..

meade916 Posted March 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 thanks Alpine nahh i use nails and glue and rarely any screws. I will on occasion, they do have their place but mostly just clamp, glue, nail......dry - move to the next piece. I will however use screws to mount the subs Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel! Over 1,000,000 subscribers strong!

dmz2711 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 what did you use to make the kerf cuts? how do you not cut completley thru the wood? 1 Quote Nobody makes me bleed my own blood, NOBODY!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AP Zoutes Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 (edited) you can set your balde depth on I think every circular saw out there. So instead of setting it @ an 1" (which is what you should use for 3/4" cut for saftey ) you would set it @ 5/8" according to steven and that' how deep your cut will be Edited March 7, 2007 by AP Zoutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
