Diary Blog - Term 3 - Week 4

Week4

This week i finished off glue my box together. The box turned out well and seemed very sturdy. On top of gluing my box, I helped out many other people finish their box of and help glue them together. 

Problem In-counted: Some boxes were odd shaped and didn't fit the designed brackets for the square boxes. 
Problem Solved: Packers were placed instead and clamps were used instead of ratchet clanks. 
Next Steps: Start working on my crossover.

Diary Blog - Term 3 - Week 2

Week 2

This week i finished off cutting out my box, preparing it for gluing. One of the main things i had to do, was to check that the holes would support the speakers and that terminals would fit through the holes. This meant i had to Chisel squares into a side. The edges around the side of the hole had to be filed back to that the speaker would sit in snug and would be flat against the wood.
