CIGARBUM Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 What kind of sheet goods are you using? Looks like 5 ply. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssctrojan1980 Posted March 30, 2009 Author Share Posted March 30, 2009 It is 5 ply white pine. Even though mdf is a little heavier. Pine is much stronger to screw into while your joints dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capo72 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Do you keep your $3000 table saw in the living room, or is your workshop just that nice? [] This project is on my "someday" list with a big 300Hz round tractrix horn on top. Good luck with your build. Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capo72 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 If you watch House, then my generally sarcastic dialogue won't be lost on you. From what I have seen so far you have thick skin, so sit back and enjoy the criticism. Welcome aboard. Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwc Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Do you not predrill holes in the motorboard for the woofer screws?. Would seem hard to line up well once the woofer chamber is assembled. Or did you say....not glued together yet? Members here would love to see photos of you build knowing that you are building these for personal enjoyment. jc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssctrojan1980 Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 Yes i do. I am waiting for my woofers to get in. However i didn't do that when i built my first khorn clones and it was a nightmare. But i guess you do learn a lot as you build these. Building stuff like this really works your craft skills and as you build them you learn things that make it easier to build on your next project. I am taking photos of these as i am building. I have some tigerwood coming in that these are gonna be veneered in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest " " Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I can help wonder why someone with a $3000 table saw would use 5 ply plywood ($12 bucks a sheet) instead of the standard 11 ply Baltic Birch ($47 bucks a sheet) or equiv that everyone else uses. Are these getting fiberglass dipped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssctrojan1980 Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 You really show that you don't know much about plywood. Cause what you see in the pictures that i am using is 3/4 inch paint grade maple. Which is 41.00 per sheet. So if you ever can afford like a half a million dollar house and want your kitchen cabinets painted and not stained. If you have them custom made and not by prefabs that are cheap built any cabinet maker will use 3/4 paint grade maple. 11 ply baltic birch... are you kidding me? what are you looking at? Will have some fiberglass on joints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
