DIY Project Database Search

Vikash · 9th February 2005, 12:41 PM

Hello fellow diyers,

I have created a searchable database of DIY Audio projects with comprehensive categorisation of each project. This will allow people to find real projects examples that contain specific items of interest as a reference for their own projects.

For example, you might search for all projects that are about 'ported subwoofer with an active first order crossover'.

Of course this requires you to enter your DIY efforts and classify them as accurately as possible (doesn't take more than a few minutes)

I look forward to any feedback/suggestions

Brilliant!

Excellent idea!

Just a thought, you might want to add subwoofer to your speaker categories.

Very nice. You should advertise this engine everywhere. You don't want an empty db.

Can I suggest a "broken link" reporting tool? I have just clicked on Tony Gee DIY cable, but the server reported missing page.

Tomislav.

How would you suggest the sub categories within? Problem is find a right balance of categorisation.

I'll add some broken link functionality soon. In the meantime feel free to post it to whichever other forums you are a member of

I would just add another tickbox marked Sub. They can still click ported, active, open baffle etc. for the other categories that apply

Vikash · 9th February 2005, 06:29 PM

I developed a windows based program that gives the inductor/capacitor values for zobel, and 1st through 4th order passive networks. The program provides values for several different filter alignments. If you can provide me with a place to upload it I will make available to all. Nothing to fancy but it is something you may want to place in your section labeled tools.
