As long as she sounds sweet, you can always throw a bag over 'er. ;)
Good work Shawn. |

| Thanks.I guess sound is most important looks second.I always seemed to need another tool I just didn't have.I wasn't familiar with horns but after this I don't know if I'll go back to a regular ported box. |

| That's a pretty clever way to store the paint polish:drink: gives a whole new meaning to "band"wagon--they look well suited for p.a. use. |

One of my cousins back home in India is a hardware dealer/distributor.
He once told me that he had a regular purchaser who actually used to drink that stuff(polish):xeye:
... And that guy was indeed a Carpenter by profession.;)
Dunno if he's still alive...
BTW congrats on your project, sound is all that matters:smash: |

Anyone who drinks furniture polish must know something that I don't. Maybe it was a home brewed version of lemoncello. Ha. He just told everyone it was lemon polish.

btw, at least Shawn's horn is painted. I'm going to have to detail mine out, someday. |

You think yours is ugly, take a look at mine. At least yours is painted and you can see a bunch of pencil lines and screws. Honestly, I think your sub looks pretty good... Definately better than mine.
But like you said, "not pretty but sounds amazing" goes for my ugly sub as well. ;)
BTW, what is your sub tuned to?

I like looking at straight pencil lines and those beautifully spaced, equal-distant screw-heads. The assembly itself is a work of art.
:D |

What can I say? You get your choice of punch in today's world: punch drunk, punch drunk love, or punchy sound. Punchy sound gets my ya-ya going--as long as there's some sweetness--like getting getting slapped on your butt with one hand and then stroked on the cheek with the other. A man would have to be a masochist to love a horn. Now where's my whip?
;)
honey, have you seen the baby? |

| shawn1972 |
| He actually liked it in the sub chamber.It was like a hiding place.he says "I'm not a baby"(ha ha).He's actually going to be 4 I was just trying to show size better. |
