As it stands at the moment the OP only has three posts so won't be able to use PM. Hopefully Mykey will see.

I dont know who Jason is. Im 49 and I Live in Connecticut in the US. Im originally from the UKand I have a soundsystem and would like to build a rhino. I just need to know what needs to be done to get the plans. Is there a certain criteria that needs to be reached?

Scoopology - Never ending saga where dark,light and rainbow forces colides and throws Wink on each other to death.. and than ..reincarnate.    :)

To "explain" Rhino/MS MK's storry in short.

Once upon a time there was raised hype around  "mini-scoops" but there was no miniscoop plans available for free. As this is/was one of forums where sound enthusiasts come to discuss/experiment about designs, considering "wished" size of cabinet I have published MS-18MK1 (large chamber version) as experiment based on miniscoop layout but with bassreflex approach rather than classic horn-theory.

Just day or two later Mykey have released his Rhino MK1 plans.
Booth MS and Rhino have been tried with few drivers and conclusion was that designs like this can play very low but due to large chamber and insufficient "cone control" booth of them require "monster" driver unit to achieve extreme SPL-s without mechanical damage on speaker voice coil.
With proper driver (like certain T.Max models) they booth will do job nice and safely...  but that is another story now.

Due to this problem and very specific driver requirements Mykey have designed Rhino MK2 and MK3 to enable much wider selection of 18" units for safe use in "miniscoop" for DIY users depending either on available units or on intended use or music gender.

That was fine and many users have reported very pleasing results with many different of-shelf drivers in those two versions of Rhino cabinets.

But... due to some repetitive discussions/accusations , respect/non-respect, ..flaming/pissing on forums Mykey have decided to pull off plans from public domain (most likely to "get out a bit" and save some nerves .. Big smile )..
Shortly after that there was constant inquires (mainly from new members) for Rhino MK123 plans and also my private mail was occasionally filled with questions about possibility to modify MS-18 into smaller chamber version.

Considering that Rhino versions are already tested/proved and people are familiar with concept I have designed my two versions of MS - MK2 and MK3 which are basically very very close by design to Rhino (Mk2 have a bit larger chamber than Rhino Mk2 .. MK3 is almost identical)
I have plans of all versions of Rhino but it would be shameless/ignorant and unfair to just re-post them somewhere.
So MS-18Mk2/3 are made in time when Rhino's was not more officially available. ..

 In my approach I have aimed to make plans with basically same performance but maximally adjusted dimensions/parts size to be easy as possible for DIY (many parts share same dimensions, "rounded" sizes .. etc.)

When properly built and loaded with same 18" driver difference in design and performance of Rhino MK3 and MS-18Mk3 is so minor that it would be hard /impossible to measure/hear that.

... Stipe :)

P.S .. Through last year I have made drawings for new 18" classic family: full sized scoop, medium scoop and mini scoop all of them can accept even deepest chassis drivers and can be made just regular way or can have built in throat tuning system.

Chamber of those new scoops can be also easily altered (reduced) post build.

So now new tunable throat miniscoop may be all-in-one replacement for all versions and possible "intermediate" versions from MS-Mk2 to beyond Mk3.

P.S.
 Unfortunately, despite the fact that I really secretly love scoops (with all their advantages/disadvantages) and also love all DIY community "elevated state of emotions" when scoops are on topic... I do not like to participate in Wink -"wars" so I have decided to hold those out of public domain too Big smile

Eventually I will make them officially available some day for some lil fee (or pack or two of beer.. you know,.. all in attempt to become obscene rich LOL)

I have Rhino all MK's plans too but can't share them freely as they belongs to Mykey. I am sure that he can/will post them to you.
If he really do not want to do it .. you can use MS-18MK3 (if it is version you looking for) ..

I would really like to know about the Rhino/MS MK3 difference. They seem extremely close so i doubt there will be much difference. I might be wrong, so what about that FB link?

Just build the MS18 Mk3.
Take no notice of the hype, bull or scoopism that goes with it.
I HAVE BUILT BOTH.
The dimensuions inside are so damn close as to not make a hoots worth of difference.
Manufacturing tolerences could account for more differences, as could the type of wood.
 People have been trying to behave on the scoop section....
 SO: UNLESS Mikey gives you the plans, NO you cannot have them in an above board manner.
Build the MS18 Mk2 or 3

Hey Id like to thank the individual who had the courtesy to share the Rhino blueprints with me. Its greatly appreciated and will be treasured along with the rest of my archives. Id also like to thank Mykey for creating it and being loyal to his creation. I will not be sharing the plans. I appreciate being apart of this enclosure fraternity. I guess Ive gone beyond the initiation process! BIG UP ALL MY SOUNDSYSTEM COLLEAGUES FROM BACK IN LONDON ENGLAND LIKE: Mr. Dennis Rowe from Saxon Outernational, Mr. Blackker Dread from Sir Coxson Soundsystem, King Alloy from Birmingham and The Greatest DUB sound that ever lived Mr. Neville Powell from JAH SHACKA earths rightful ruler! But like u guys said BRIBERY might pay off!!! Its not who u know its who knows u!!! Have a nice weekend...I am!

well im sure you said you wouldn't share them just 2 posts up the page,and as there not for public use,its quite rude of you to offer to share them straight away...maybe you should ask the person who spent time effort and money to produce them in the first place,and ofcourse you know who that is

Hi i want made my personal PA system 4-ways for reggae sound system,

For now I
think building a half stack

I thought to do two mini scoop for now I am not convinced by ms mk2-3

As against the rhino looks better suit me.

I get the plans for the Mk1 version of rhino but I thought that if I read mount PD 1850 in the volume of the body was not necessarily suitable and version 2 or 3 would be appropriate.

I can not send a private message for now I think I do not have the number of points or something like that.

So if you read me Mykey HELP;)

Hi / up Wink

I am always looking mini scoop plan suitable for PD 1850

Like mini Shortman or mykey mk2 / mk3

I do not want to make it my business just build my stack

At worst if someone has a box (even exploded)
I'm interested retro engineering it's still possible for me.

Thanks for your answer T.gees

This is a bad new and I'm pretty far for help you to recover your data

;(

If you have always your hard drive and if this one is no totaly dead you can try some data recovery softs;
like photorec (for data)
and testdisk (for recovering partition)

This is true and there is no connection with the subject
I mean the differences between the rhino mk2 / mk3 3 and MS18 only
and I always look for the plans ...
