Colin -even with access to a CNC capable of that depth of cut, such a fabrication from sold wood of any species could be tricky.
Here is a pic from the original FB post my Marcell Herrmann, FWIW.
There is a full write up here (in German..., but Google translate makes it ~readable)

And while i'm here, this just out. Hasn't been built yet.
Dave - could you tell me from what point on the angled top inner baffle did you measure the height of the w14's?

Note that i could make something similar to what is in Colin's post above with these drivers which you can get.

I'd love to see a smaller (shorter) version, perhaps with only one side woofer, as two makes the whole thing too thick, unless we staggered the side woofers so they don't conflict inside.
At the moment I am favoring the Mark Audio 4" (not sure which is best of their drivers this size - there is the new Pluvia).
The Silver Flute wool woofer comes in a few sizes - depending on which fits best.
I got a schematic of the passive XO used in the German DIY project, looks really simple. I still plan to try to use the mini dsp and stay active..
Thanks in advance.

Plans with details will be part of the FF85wk planset.

Can you post it or give us a link?

What drivers is that for?
… 1 driver FR, 1 a tweeter/super tweeter, and the other a mid-tweeter with EQ.

as I understand it (the write up is in German and the Google translate is not great)
FR - Fountek FE85
Woofer - Tang Band W5-1138SM
Rear facing tweeter (I think...) Tang Band 13-1761S.

Those are the drivers used in the project I am considering copying..
For my project (still being planned) I think I will go with a Mark Audio 4" FR. Fostex an option if coated to resist weather, but I am not sure which is best.
Woofer(s) - whichever Silver flute fits best, or perhaps two of these if a good idea and can fit opposing each other in a small box.
I have not decided which tweeter I favor - this one is probably a good start as it is so small.
Dave, since you know so much more than me, I welcome any input.

I'm really more interested in the methodology than exact numbers. I can't buy anymore drivers! I was thinking of adapting this design to your mt-tl for el-166 plans. Next month when my wife goes horse camping with her friends I get to make speakers!Plans with details will be part of the FF85wk planset.

email me.

I don't see a PM option for you or an email - can you send me a PM?
Just clic on Dave's planet10-HiFi link and scroll to the page bottom where there is an email tag.

Thanx Jeff. I have PM turned off so i can't send or receive. Send email is turned off forum wide because the BBS is old and creaky (being changed soon i understand)

A build (sort of) is underway. All the pieces have been done already, just not assembled in this fashion yet.

Hi Dave - any chance this project has since found a way forward in somebody's garage somewhere ??
