I realize there's plenty of "how-to's" out here so I'm hoping the attached is a little different in that it was written from the point of view of a novice. If you're making leap from building someone else's kit to designing your own, this guide may save you some headaches.
There are two main reasons for writing this. First is so I remember what I did 😱 to build my latest project. The second is that my son the physics major and percussionist has developed a keen interest in DIY speaker making and asked me to build a set of speaker with him. So, it's best I had a cookbook.
Giving credit where credit is due, much must be given to Jeff Bagby, whose techniques and tools are used in the arc I followed. And special thanks to Bill Waslo for writing awesome software. Perhaps there's even something in here for the more experienced. I hope you enjoy it.
