This is my first major wood working project i've ever done. Only had a circular and jig saw. Overall i enjoyed the build. Had a few mishaps though. Accidently bought veneered wood that kept peeling after being painted, and not all of my cuts were 100% straight. after painting the box it just made everything looked worse. So i bought some felt from the craft store and was surprised on how well carpet hid all of my mistakes.

I plan to do another set with the melded array as i didn't have enough time to finish them for a gig so i did a flat array. To be honest i was skeptical of how well they would sound with piezos. But once i fired them up i was grinning ear to ear. I djed a reception with them sat night and i booked 2 other gigs that night. Can't wait to get started on my t24s.

Looks good! Otops take on a whole new look with a nice set of grills.
