Which step did you forget? Just ordering a built one?
No, seriously...what did you forget?
Oh I didn't think it was
To your first question yes, should've just ordered a Funk sub since they're having their sale
I forgot to glue the threaded inserts as I was getting them into the front baffle so when I fitted the driver and screwed it in half of them came out, which was a face palm if I ever had one. This seemed like a minor mistake until I tried to glue them in after the fact. Most of them actually turned out alright, but three of them are approaching FUBAR. At this point I may need to just fill them with glue, let it sit for a week or two and try all over again. I'm giving it one last shot tonight, letting it sit and dry overnight, then seeing how it comes out tomorrow. If it's a complete cluster I'll scrap it, fill the holes and start over.
Worst case scenario, I have enough MDF to make a new front baffle. Not a big deal since the mineral wool I ordered for the acoustic dampening material seems like it's never going to get here. Supposedly shipped last week. Even got a tracking number, but Fedex still has yet to receive it.
Oh well at least I'm having fun
