IT TIME !!! FOR T39 !!!

#1 Post by Gsharp9 »

Well, here we go. Thanks so much for the advice and teaching so far guys. Your input made it possible for me to make informed decisions.

I know I have an enormous amount to learn - let's get it going!

Soooo...... Got the the BB and started cutting. :hyper:

I don't get this cut table out everyday, but when I do it makes me very happy.

Hey!!!! Someone who knows what that is !!! RARE.

Nice to meet you. I will just say, that I have made an impressive array of mistakes on my first build... very distressing first couple of days. Got several steps in and found errors. Had to take them apart and start over. :wall:

But I will be back at it today.

Shout out to Leland.

I had a simple question that only a true Newbie would have - he was gracious and answered me quickly.

Incredible group of people on this forum.

Forgot to mention on your other threads on how I build my cabs, since it was mostly about planning.

This might or might not be prefered to the rest but, for me, it is the best method i've found. Simply assemble the whole cab with ONLY screws, no glue whatsoever. This applies even to braces. Like this, you are able to find any mistakes and fix them without having to saw anything off. Like this the whole cab takes shapes with all the parts fitted to each other.

After everything fits perfectly and you have all your screw guides already drilled, simply unscrew everything and then just all the pl which makes it extremely easy once you have all the holes for the screws pre-drilled.
Built:6 t39, t18, 4 Jack10, 2 autotuba, 2 SLA,2 wedge, 2 TT, 2 Tritrix, curved sla, 2 otop212, 2 SLA pros, Ported 8" sub, 2 ported 210, dual ported 8" sub

Well, some progress was made yesterday in some limited time. Had previously caught my rookie (first timer) mistakes and corrected them before the glue had even had five minutes to set.... I just cleaned it off and decided to come at it on a different day.

I used pocket screws on many things in the past and decided to give it a go on this. Worked out great. I'm seeing how a few jigs and some templates could make these go together very quickly.

Starting to think ahead to leak testing. It seems there are some different ideas on best way to do that...... ?

I think everyone starts to think ahead to leak testing once they start gluing panels in place. There's always the worry of "was that last join watertight?". The solution is to use loads of PL to get rid of these niggles :) Have faith in the goop!
