The carpenter I know very well got orders for 12 Punisher horns (for different customers) There will be pictures of the building on his own dutch site: Which might be helpful for your own construction. He uses a slightly more complicated design which included handles and more refined way joining of the panels (using a router) but basically it is the same Punisher II design (for Ciare 2005 version): The first picture is over here: http://www.iven.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?p=91#91 Best regards, Walt |

So before they go their separate ways, will you be taking plots of 12
Punishers going in unison, or are you short of amp power

I should be able to arrange a rack with 5x MC2 E45 (>30.000W RMS)amps to power the Punishers. But too bad only 6 of them will be fitted with a Ciare driver. The other six will be finished by the customers themselves. Best regards, Walt |

@Walt, The pics look nice! Looks like good work! I love the pics that you can see the "sawdust" on the floor. Makes it real! I noticed the foam on some of the joins. Is he using a polyurethane glue (ie.. Gorrilla Glue, etc)? If so, is he using it on all joins? I like the concept and I've had pretty good luck with it on other projects. I'm planning on putting my cabs together with it. This should be a pretty impressive "pile" of speakers when done! Jim |

I used Polyurethane glue (5min setting) on my last project.
Couldn't get the joints together and clamped quick enough before it
set. If you can get some stuff which is a little slower then go
for it. Personally I'm probably going back to PVA. Other
problem is you can't wash it off anything with anything. No
solvent I've tried will get it off your hands before or after it's set!
Wear gloves!

Wow! The stuff I'm using doesn't even show foam for about an hour. The bottle says to "Clamp for 1 to 4 hours". Clean up wet glue with Acetone or Mineral Spirts. If it sets that fast, how well does it "bite"? Maybe good for something else, but not for fiddly joins. Jim |

This stuff is a bit special, made by Evo-stick, bonds pretty much
anything to anything, seawater proof etc. Comes in a sealant gun
cartridge. Seemed a good idea when I was in the hardware shop.
It's useful for doing quick jobs cos you can pretty much just hold a
joint together by hand for a couple of mins. If you want to build
cabs and use them about an hour later it's great!!!
Will have a look for the regular stuff for the next job tho. |

http://www.iven.nl/bouwproces/punisher/punisher_bestanden/IM G_4655.JPG I only got upto that step so far with the Punisher I'm building but I feel like I done something wrong, cos I didn't use those clamps I just held the glue together by screwing the panels.

Holding the glue together using screws is fine. I have used that method when building cabinets for myself. That worked out very well. Make sure you pre-drill the screwholes. Otherwise the screwing will push the panels away from each other because the material which is under the screw has not got a way out. By pre-drilling this material is already almost gone.

Yep pre-drilled the screwholes and even counter sunk them so the screw is flush with the surface of the wood.
