Liftedranger"s 2010 build

Well, hopefully ill be able to start on the top of the box tomorrow. I had planned on getting it done tomorrow, but i gota work at 2 tomorrow. Im gona get up early and get as much as i can done. Be expecting plenty of pics.

 

Well i got some more progress done today.

The top and 2 sides cut out


My homemade pipe clamps. 2 of many we have in the shop.


The top and sides glued and screwed. I had to use a little brace at the bottom to hold it square since there wont be a wood bottom.



The back piece glued and screwed on.



All i gota do now is cut out the 2 front baffles, fiberglass the inside, and cut out holes for subs, ports and all thread.

 

Well i had some resin left over from the gallon that i bought. It wont enough to do another layer on my floor so i put it on my back wall of the box.

 

When i get something in my head, i get to it. HAHA

 

Well i got the front 2 baffles cut out.


Uh oh, looks like a miss cut. HAHA. Jk, i had to cut it 2 inches longer to be able to fit the subs on the baffle.

 

I got the subs drawn out on the front baffle. I cant draw the circles for the port yet, bc i aint sure exactly how big the flare is on the 4" aero. I should be able to order the ports either tomorrow or wednesday.

 

Well, i changed box designs again. Im gona do a slot port across the top. Its gona be 24x4x20. That gives me 96 sq inches of port tuned to 30-31 hz after its kerfed.

 

I got a package today. Woot Woot.

Hmm. What could it be?


My new head unit.




I cant wait to get it installed and playing. Driving with out a radio for 2-3 weeks sucks. HAHA

 

Well ive had really good luck w pioneers in the past so i figured i would stick with them. I guess its all about what you like. lol

 

Here is the newest box design. Its tuned to 30-31 hz with 96 sq inches of port and it will be kerfed. . I just couldnt draw it up in sketch up bc i aint that good at it yet.

 

I redrew up the box again bc i did not like the placement of the subs in the box above. I like this one a lot better.
The sqaure in the middle will be plexiglass.
