- Enclosure Construction & Assembly -
Now onto the box. One of pitfalls of this project was my lack of free time. As a dental student, I have little to no free time. So when I heard of Erik Francey's custom MDF cutting service, I recommended to my friend to shell out the cash to get it done. Erik made the box up in CAD, and then CNC milled all the pieces I needed. When it shipped a few weeks later, I was super impressed. There were a few mods to make to the box to get everything to fit perfectly ( ie, a dremel tool ) because everything was so tight, but it all went together nicely. He cut the mid and tweet cutouts for flushmount. Boy was that handy b/c it would have taken me a long time to do on my own. One mod I made to the box was I added an extra piece of MDF for a space for the crossover (see the pics). This was done easily w/ my router at about 3 AM during our Thanksgiving break.
