Ok, small update, I didn't finsish the enclosure today

Simply because we don't have anything at the house to cut perfect circles, but I believe my roomate is going to be kind enough to buy some adapter for the router, so I'm hopeing I can finish up tomorrow But I was able to put 4 walls up and 4 bracing in.

Check out the pics

Small update

During assembly of the box, I was wondering HTH am I going to cut the circles, so after a lot of stressful thinking and trying to get my roomates router to work, I decided to bite the bullet and just by some sort of damn tool myself. So before heading into work today, I stoped by lowes and bought the cheapest jigsaw I could find. Its pretty neat though and took little effort to make the circles. So now that I have just finished the cuts while at work, once I get home, I will glue the last 3 pieces together after test fitment and adjustments. Here are a few more pics.

So just waiting for these next few hours to past, go home, and try to start "wanging" tomorrow sometime hopefully.

Ok, so last update for the night, its now 4:18, so I've been at this for atleast 5 hours after an 8 hour shift at work

This box build is finally almost complete, thank god, this was a lot of work!! I have gained much respect for box builders. Well on to the pics...

Glueing three panels together

Decided to try bolt through terminals this time.

Inside view of the terminals

Inside view of finished bracing

view with top baffle on

Laying glue down on baffle

And this is where we stand tonight, pic of the enclosure all clamped up.

This enclosure is very ugly, uneven, and slppy, but at the end of the day, I'm happy with it, I feel accomplished

Thanks for looking! Time to get some damn sleep after a nice shower.

[RobClay 20]

I hear ya man, its hard to get everything perfect. Especially using a skillsaw. Nice looking box and build though!

[dbsupra 69]

Happy to see you are nearly there! What material are the bolts? I would recommend aluminum because standard steel does not conduct all that well.

[16K 159]

[Sencheezy 689]
