Posted April 17, 201213 yr It has begun. For those not familiar here is a recap:http://www.soundsolu...of-double-dees/ For now this is just a box and sub replacement, and everything that comes with it. The goods:The box design:Estimated frequency response graph. O_oI decided to spruce up the box design just a bit by adding some windows. Just a little something to show off the insanity of the sub's motor design. It's not eveyday you get to see something this gonzo nuts. Here is a little test of the line of site. The red strip represents where the sub will be. You might have to close one eye to get the full effect in person. More on the way.

You've seen one, you've seen them all. Interesting about the graph though.I do hope the windows work out though, I'm really looking forward to showing off the motors on these subs.
April 17, 201213 yr Awesome!I've been gone so long and didn't see your first build in the burban, this should be insane!
April 18, 201213 yr Author I started working on cutting the windows on the front side panel. I opted to change up from the circular windows to a pair of verticle slots on each side of the panel. I laid out the hole locations on the panel.With holes cut in the panels as the ends of the slots I used a buddy's fancy little dremel router.Needless to say that was a big waste of time. Stupid thing wouldn't track straight worth a damn. I roughed out the slots with a jigsaw. After a bit of thinking I came up with using a router with bearing guided bit. I used another of the boxes panels as a guide with some sockets to pick up the tangent points of the slots.Here is the panel with the guide setup ready for the cut.The router ready for action.The first cut finished.I used the port brace as the guide for the opposite side since I needed a shorter piece. Here is a side shot of the setup just before the cut.Before starting the cut a quick verification that nothing is gonna hit. Last thing I want is to be caught off guard while handling a 20,000 rpm router.The finished slots. Thanks for looking.
April 18, 201213 yr Author good luck with the warhorseNo problem. It worked like a champ pushing the Double Deez.Awesome!I've been gone so long and didn't see your first build in the burban, this should be insane!Glad to see your back. No worries this build is gonna be a litte shorter. The end is near.
