Hog Scoop, a few questions

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Hello,
my mates & I are planning on making these HOGs, and we had a few questions on the construction, and on the speaker that'll drive 'em:

There's another plan with the rest of the mesurments, but I wanted to know if anyone had ever build these, and what's to think of it ?

Second question, it is said on the plan that a B&C Speakers 18TBX100 would be good, is that info any good ?

What do I need to use to cover the inside of the cab, glass wool ?

and last, the type of wood is specified on the plan, would another kind do the job (MDF for example) ? and double bracing the whole cab means every piece of wood that'll be put inside it must be screwed through a brace ?

That's about it, 

pleasant evening to you all

	yes, many people built these, and there are various threads on the scoop forum, where you will find all the answers its a very good scoop, and i have 4 of them with 18tbx100. other drivers like pd1850 can give you more spl. but i didnt hear any other hog so i just can comment on mine... i didnt put insulation in the chamber, and mdf would be good, but hog is quite heavy with birch ply, an mdf one would be even more difficult to move, so put wheels on it! you have to build the cabinet (every cabinet, not just the hog) with lots of glue and screws, the same is for braces...

	Double bracing means that there should be two identical braces accross the width of the design, rather than just on in the middle. A picture says a thousand words, Makes them look rather pretty with the double bracing to!

	Go for PD1850 or V18-1200 if you want serious low-end grunt .
