8*T30 30" dual 12" european

Looks great. I like the design on the mouth braces!

Sadly timing is not on my side, but the exploded workload should slowly ease from now on.

I got the cab finished yesterday, had to think about the connection at first, i think i'll go with that for all of the cabs.

Space sufficient, less cables inside, only one point with importance of airtight...and every connector is flush :)

All sealed

Before the mouthbrace

And done, glue is setting right now.
As the winter returned again, this will take more time as i would like it to; but nothing i can change.
Will do the flanges as soon as i can, and then place some woofers in there to check if the sealing has worked. But i am pretty sure it should be airtight everywhere.

Looks great! I'll be curious to hear your impression when you get a chance to test it.

Well yeah, nothing on the time side is on my side...
I stole some of the unavailable time, got the flanges and filled the holes...but not yet further -.-

Flanges done, will def do them in one piece the next cabs. For aligning during build, to avoid the build inside chamber now...would be a win even with more wasted wood.

Corrected oopsie, glued replacement and trimmed flush

Good recovery.

Good recovery.

Had the panel underneath when cutting some bracings with the circular saw...thought the cutline was clear, turned out it was not and the corner got lost^^

But as it was about fixing shorted panels elsewhere, i thought showing the recovery maybe helps someone.
Really not a problem to fix.

Did start burning the drivers in, forgot about that completely.

Shortlinked the amp to my home circuit, it took a few runs until the amp did not trigger the breaker bc of the empty transistors that want to load up immediatly. But now the first 4 are running...will do the next 4 in 12 hours and maybe i get the time to put the first two in the cab to hear it finally :))

I thought about the wheelboard thing again.
I came up with the following thought: As i want to do 8 of the T30 and 4 of the DRs, i could stack tweo T30 and one DR to one carry-on-package, and i would end up with 4 equal bundles i can strap together.

The height of that adds up to around 210cm without the wheelboard, which will be problematic to get out of the door sadly. But this will be the storage-solution, to move them I'd have to take the tops of until the package is out of the door.
Now i just need to think about how to fix that stack to the wheelboard. I thought about having routed in handles in the T30 as well as in the board, board slightly overlapping, and then strapping it around everything. Between the cabs i'd place some of the protection mats, as i want to have them anyway when stacking them to play.
I just do not trust the recommended hatching with butterflys enough, the cab feels sort of too big for the little hatches (and i do not want the hatches on the cab when stacked).

anything i forgot? any problem with strapping?

I would give the wheelboard a frame on three sides, to have the position fixed to the lower cab so there is no movement when rolling around.
As i have to do a stacking solution for the DRs on top of the V-Plate later, i thought re-using the wheelboard for that. The mentioned frame could have additional bars, that would carry the lower DR, and the wheels could get grooves on top of the V-plate (similar to what someone here showed lately, just bigger wheels and covering the angled lower DR directly. viewtopic.php?p=299480#p299480 )
