Will do Mike!!! the last thing I want is to make the mods mad    :D

I am working on these pieces and a few others that will be in a very exclusive art gallery in Las Vegas in the future.. So once that happens maybe I can get my own circle?   :thumb:

Thanks for the comments!!

more work accomplished this weekend...

Both stands routered, top enclosure bolted in place, you can start to see the overall shape and flow, the spines still have to be created to give a more 3d look.





Both top enclosures will be bolted to the stands via 4 bolts that you access from inside the box. You can see I have 2 in place just to temporarily show how it works. You can also see that the 6.5 midbass will vent into the stand.



I'm just holding the baffles in place. Both drivers are mechanically aligned. This also will give a more 3D effect once I pull the fleece.

Astonishingly beautiful work! I hate to add a minor quibble, especially since your skills are vastly beyond mine, but you really should consider rounding over the front baffle edges, around the drivers. This could smooth out the response of each driver considerably, by reducing baffle diffraction effects, and make the crossover design somewhat easier. For an example of what even a 3/4" roundover can do, see:

You definitely are creative.  I don't think I'd ever come up with something like this, and I don't mean that in a belittling way, just in case it sounds that way.  I am curious to see where they go.

Thanks Josh... still a ton more to do in regards to shaping the top enclosure.. there is also a transition piece that will flow from the enclosure onto the stand and will be painted as well...

OK... got a little more done yesterday.. everything is made except the base.. I will do that this weekend.. But I will start pulling fleece this week.

What you see here is the spine that will create the overall shape for fiber glassing.. I have rabbited the outside edge to staple the fleece to create the overall shape of the top enclosure.

There will also be side inlays on the top enclosures that will be veneered to match the stands
