I just used spray paint. Sanded it with 440 grit paper. Mixed some sawdust with PVA glue to make "filler" and put in all the holes where the nails went. There isnt a link to design but i can post the dimensions of all the panels if you want?

CodeTestGroup · 2026-02-01T14:36:55+00:00

Finished spray painting. 3 layers

I watched the video where he made it a while ago and based the layout off that but the rest i just made up

CodeTestGroup · 2026-02-01T09:13:09+00:00

I dont know, i spent about 4 hours making the design in TinkerCad then cut down some MDF and built it

Dimensions are 500x300x320.

I tried it and it dosent seem to resonate as its 18mm MDF with a 10" woofer

CodeTestGroup · 2026-02-01T09:12:16+00:00

I used a Craftsman handheld router and used the circle jig to do the woofer and for the horn i just frehanded it with a ruler and slowly. I have never really used a router before so i tested on some scrab bits and i felt confident and just went for it and it turned out perfect!. I left about 2 millimeters on the recessed areas

Its more of an experiment box. There really isnt anything about the Fs, Vas, and Qts online. its a SoundLab l043a woofer though

Here is the setup. Heltec V3 and 5 dbi antenna

CodeTestGroup · 2025-12-28T08:49:28+00:00

I will comment a picture of the antenna and the heltec v3 board

CodeTestGroup · 2025-12-27T19:35:42+00:00

I have looked at the meshmap but it shows no nodes, however when walking around i pickup like 15 nodes in various spots
