USA Post Number: 2921 Registered: Jan-06 | woops, didnt see the terminal cup the first time, but i don't know how well the box will hold up with those splits. and yeah, tuning is determined before you build the box by the cu/ft of the box, the size of the ports, how much space the sub will take up, and some other things. |

Bronze Member Username: KhaePost Number: 29 Registered: May-07 | after those two wood splited i predrileld every hole i had... lol i didnt use any program or nething like that i just did it to the spec of my sub which is the volume required for a ported box which the cubic foot of the box is abou 3.4 cubic foot.. i drew everything out and wen to homedpot and told them to cut it for me bascially they cut the whole thing up expect the two holes for the sub and the terminals... next time im thinking about drilling a hole jsut for a 8gauge wire instead of using terminals... so does any one wanna teach me how to tune a box like b4 i built it... here what it looks like.... kinda with the sub in it  |

Silver Member Username: Andrew571Stillwater/Edmond, Oklahoma USA Post Number: 835 Registered: Oct-05 | well, First off you should have askt this before u came with a box built. Anyways it was good practice and probably cheap, so no real big loss, its okay. ask for some plans, im sure someone here will help u out, i gotta go eat, if no1 helps ill help u when i get back |

Bronze Member Username: KhaePost Number: 31 Registered: May-07 | yeah it was cheap spent total of about 35 for wood glue and screws..... imma carpet it later on but i dont know where to get some or what kind is good to get.... or how to carpet it.. i think that i should use some spray of glue from m3 and then jus cover it with the carpet and then cut off the excess of it with a razor blade or something... |
