The best way i've
found to get that polyurathene glue off your hands is to
unload and load a 16 tonner full of PA a few times. works well, but i
guess it's a lot of effort just for some glue!
Or you could just wear gloves as said before! |

For that many cabs I'd not think twice about making up a jig for my
router and doing everything tongue and groove. No screws, easy assembly
and in the end you need only strap the boxes up proper and perhaps
weight them down a little et. voila.

From the looks of the photos everything is sitting in dados. Pretty much the same as tongue and groove..

walt : it would be nice to get an SPL reading/transfer function curve at 20metres distance!! Its probably much faster to build them in parallel as your doing rather than one by one.The movements you do get better the more you do-and you would learn to save time. |

looks like a lovely build walt... a friend of yours? he's certainly a skilled joiner
did you hear about itsy's punishers' unfortunate accident? all 4 at once, burnt out solid. apparently generator spikes are to blame.. do you know how much the recone kits are?
would love to make myself 8 punishers later this year to go under the hd15s. storage as ever is a problem. but.... 1xffa6000 on the hds, 2x on the punishers =18000w of the finest bass around. 8)
i think ill look into renting a lockup.... ;)
yes, of course. ive been saying this for AGES but no one listened ;) unless we're talking absolutely bog standard cuboid DR boxes (and even then if you're making lots), tongue&groove/rebate/dado or any other similar, repeatable joint is not just the strongest, but also the quickest way of building boxes. once you have the technique figured out, jigs/router table ready etc, its so much easier than fiddling about with marking out screw holes etc. and best of all, no soul destroying filling and sanding of a hundred countersunk holes on each box... oh and toxic, have you actually used a biscuit cutter before? biscuits aint too great for cab construction IMO. not all that repeatable, and it takes much more attention to get it right.... |

Hello, I did not hear about itsy's punishers unfortunate accident. I would like to know in more detail what happened. All cabinets dead at the same time that indicates a massive problem with the amp or generator. Waht happened to the amplifier? So far here in holland nobody managed to destroy a 12.00SW so I don't know anything about the price on recones. A system of 8 Punishers should be nice Best regards, Walt |
