Silver Member Username: Mvplefty12Pinellas, FLA America Post Number: 406 Registered: Mar-06 | Ok, I figure it will be cheaper for me to build a new box then buy a new belt sander, and seeing how its pretty fun, I'm definatly going to do it. I'm going to build this box here http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/ported-box.asp?Ew=32&Eh=16&Dia=9&Xmax=20&Vd= .25&NumW=1&Vb=3.5&Fb=30&Qts=&Vas=&Fs=&CE=0 Alot of you probably saw my last box where my dad had some rough cuts and it was too tall. I'm doing this whole one on my own. Does anyone have any tips for me this time? Should I put in the port walls first or the outter walls? Do you think 30hz will be too low for a daily driver or should I tune it higher? By the way, this will house a 15" Mag. Any help will be most appreciated. Thanks, Andrew |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindFi AudioBTL Post Number: 8290 Registered: Oct-05 | there are some that like to put the front baffle last. before i put the top on, i make sure i put a lot of glue so the glue oozes out a little so it would have a better seal. |

Bronze Member Username: Bjfish11Garden Plain, KS USA Post Number: 15 Registered: Dec-06 | Heres how I do it: Assemble port (if there is 2 pieces). Then attach the port to the front baffle. Bottom next, followed by both sides. Next goes the back, and finally the top goes on. But I build mine differently than most do |
