That's what I need! A cabinet with a shelf for my coffee cup!shoot, its a big one
well, what you see is only half of the mouth opening
there's another one at opposite side
I decided to make rounded foldings with foam
I love that you're using hand tools. Truly a lost art, these days.
thank you
Right now I'm stuck at the curves
well, I'm very excited whether it will give me the decired monster tone
but need to do them curves
some veneer would be nice
maybe I should try a get hold of some
hey, managed to cut a hole for the 15" woofer
looks kind of small

ok, small problem, but solved
its the foam I plan to use
the spraycan can't be used more than once
well, there are other types of foam, but whatever
I found this massonite back panel from an old wardrobe
slicing the plate with a hobby knife makes it more flexible
not much work really
then I can just fill up with foam, after its glued into place
that should work ok

Getting close to sticking a drawer in!
might improve on WAF factor but probably not enough to allow yet another one for the stereo
btw, be careful with that foam stuff
I almost blew one or two roundings
that last curve baffle proved more difficult than expected
but it done now
just a reminder, there's a horn mouth on both sides
'the voice test' sounded nice and soft
can't wait to play some nice bass tunes through it
maybe it works, maybe it doesn't
but its exciting
now on to finishing
and maybe some wheels

That's a lot of work there, hope you're pleased with the result
So it's heavy, then?

hey, Chris
nah, I can lift it
surpricingly light
but quite big
measures 500 x 750 x 800mm
but if its good, the next ones might be bigger
also thought it might be a nice convertible boombox
Yes.
And you'll need a 4x10 cab
if you can add a self powered subwoofer even better.
i have a tubeworks 300w tube amp with 4x10" paper woofer cab and it´s more than enough to play with a band in a room
Here is a website that should be checked out by anyone wanting to build their own bass cab. The fEarful project is fairly recent and is the subject of many threads over on the talkbass forum. There are lots of contributions from builders with pics and tips and reviews etc. I myself am planning on building two of the 15/6 tube cabs this summer when the weather improves.
fEARful enclosures for bass/drums/keys
Here's the designers web site. He has in essence contributed the designs to the bass playing DIY community.
Apologies to all if someone else has already pointed this out.
There is now a dedicated fEARful forum as well, and kits with all the panels pre-cut and all the crossover parts and boards included.
But how does it SOUND ????
thanks
yeah, the most exciting part is coming in a few days
but I can say from 'talking' into driver opening, something will happen
what I fore is a BIG sound, but with not too much heavy low end
hence the midbass horn
I think the chances are good
I think it will get the last paint today

You can also add 1 piezo tweeter with a Lpad
