This is box is for 2x Peavey Lowrider 18
Vb=13.5 cu ft
Fb=35 hz
F3=34.73

Luckily my dad and I have a cabinet/woodworking shop, so the build went smoothly.
No baltic birch sold in my area. (I hunted for weeks).
The ply used is 9-ply 18 mm Sandeply by Endesa (Equador) from Home Depot.
I had my doubts at first with it, but it has been GREAT only 2 SMALL voids found in 4 sheets.
Cuts and routes nicely and only about $45/sheet(4x8)


























More pics to follow.

We just clamped two squares to a block. This was to help get our first three sides nice and square.
My dad is used to building cabs by himself and it is one of his tricks.
We didn't use it much as we there were two of us, but it along with that lead weight on top helped
as a counterweight to hang the cab off the table to install bottom screws.

We did make that make that jig you see on the router.

Looks effin' clean Sadler! Been trying to figure the best way to cut my 18's out and that looks perfect on the router. I was thinking something similar but you just showed me what to do, thanks!CoolCool

Nice trick with the framing squares.  I may have to use that.  I have a couple of equilateral triangles with a wide flange on two sides that allow clamps to be placed. Works great when one builds alone.
