Members luke978 Posted May 20, 2008 Members Share Posted May 20, 2008 Its 29.75"X 14"X16.75" and modeled after a VHT Fatbottom, made from 3/4" birch, rabbet joined. I was going to finger join the edges but I couldn't cut the dado's like I wanted them. I still gotta build the baffle, seal it, fill and sand the exterior, and tolex it. I'll probably tolex it bright green and load it with WGS V30's. So far I think its better than my first attempt: :freak: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Casey4s Posted May 20, 2008 Members Share Posted May 20, 2008 Looking good Sir...Make sure you fill the screw holes with wood filler and router the edges of the cabinet with a 1/2 roundover bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Casey4s Posted May 20, 2008 Members Share Posted May 20, 2008 I just noticed the additional small blocks in pic #2, why are they in there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members luke978 Posted May 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 20, 2008 I don't even remember. I have long since dismantled that one and turned it into a shop cabinet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paraclete Posted May 20, 2008 Members Share Posted May 20, 2008 Looks good so far. Nice and solid on the bracing like I do on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members luke978 Posted May 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 20, 2008 Thanks. How much baffle/batting material should go inside a 2X12? Is there a formula floating around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hvymtl939 Posted May 20, 2008 Members Share Posted May 20, 2008 how much does it weigh right now? How much you expect it to way complete? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members luke978 Posted May 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 20, 2008 Its 21.5lbs now, but with speakers, the baffle, and the back, who knows. Maybe under 55lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
