Thanks for the translation! I will test for leaks and report, but I'm still gathering all materials to build my Omni 15 Tallboy while I'm finishing our new bathroom, and then we have to go to Rome on vacation instead of me building the Tallboy...DJPhatman wrote:After translating the description, that glue looks fine.

Na het vertalen van de beschrijving, dat de lijm ziet er prima uit. Zorg ervoor dat u een goede lucht-lek testen te doen en rapporteren van uw bevindingen.

I joined the first two panels yesterday with the Rectavit Structan and it looks like this:
Re: Links to everything you need for your BFD-build, in Euro
It looks the same as Soudal 60A. Which is ok.

Apparently Rectavit is now owned by Soudal, so it might be just the same product after all...
I tested it, very very strong, even after 5 minutes...

Since it doesn't say "expanding" I'd guess not.

(I've seen a few designs using that style of horn on this forum). Maplin do have the other horn design suitable for melding (not sure how it sounds).
The cheaper Amazon marketplace piezos (£2) I found had good sound quality but not very sensitive.
I used Blue Aran to get Eminence speakers and have bought two APT 80 on there and two LA6CBMR on there. Maplin do the APT80 but at £37 instead of about £22 or so on Blue Aran!
for piezo tweeters try c.p.c. and for eminence try thomann.de
Re: Links to everything you need for your BFD-build, in Euro
I buy my Eminence from http://www.lean-business.co.uk/eshop/ as they're usually the cheapest. On occasion there's a fella on ebay selling Lab12s for about £110 each.

Re: Links to everything you need for your BFD-build, in Euro
Found a plywood supplier near me - http://www.peterbensonplywood.co.uk/
I emailed them the following message, "Hi there! I'm building some large speakers and the plans call for this... "12mm Plywood. Buy a grade with 5 or more equal thickness plies, but don’t waste money on high-priced premium grades or marine plywood. With a paint finish use birch, poplar or Arauco (Radiata pine), as with softwood the grain will show through. Make sure your birch is in fact Northern White Birch, either Canadian or European (Baltic), with a thick outer face, not cheap Asian ‘birch’, which has a thin veneer outer face. Quality birch is usually found at smaller lumberyards that cater to kitchen cabinetmakers, and often comes in 5x5 foot sheets." Do you have anything that fits the bill and if so in what size (ideally 8x4). Kindest regards, Scott.
To which they replied, "Hi Scott, We have:
Russian Birch BB/B Plywood
2440mm x 1220mm x 12mm £31.95 per sheet
Russian Birch Birch BB/B Plywood
1525mm x 1525mm x 12mm £22.80 per sheet
Does this sound like the right stuff?

The 4x8s are only about 10% more per square foot - so use whichever size best fits the cabs you are building.
