Sheefa Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 Good choice Muffleman. The supplier said I need 10 ABS to produce these. I think they'll be much stronger and easier to fit to be honest with a more rigid futureproof base. Doesn't matter on the number of MDF, but obviously 20+ to make the total 30.

Guest Skidracer Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Uh.. Does it matter that I haven't bought a membership yet? If not, Id like a set! Preferably ABS, but if that's not possible, mr-mdf with poly sealant is ok Also, does a similar product exist for the backseat speakers?

Sheefa Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 Boloarbag, I would imagine the ABS ones will be very light and the MR-MDF not that much heavier. Once I have the samples I will of course weigh, provide specs and finalise the buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_b Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Sheefa Just wanna say thanks mate, you're putting a lot of effort into this. Yep, I echo this. Top work Sheefa, it hasn't gone un-noticed! The only thing that holds me back about the ABS is whether it'll be as easy to modify to suit the particular speakers that I eventually buy. For example, do you know if ABS is as "drillable" as MDF (without cracking it)? As you can guess, I know absolutely nothing about ABS. I'm tempted to change mine to an ABS order.....

Sheefa Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 Thanks guys! That's what the community is all about though! Stevie - I understand your concerns mate and I've emailed Phil for a proper response. I had the same. But see below for a bit of info around the material pal. Phil said he could drill holes in ready for the speakers to be mounted, but of course all speakers differ in terms of where the holes are located so this would cause more harm than good! "ABS has been hailed by professional modelmakers as “the best all-around construction material since wood”. Stronger and more rigid than many metals; easier and more flexible to work with than any previous plastic; cleaner and more durable than wood. ABS is also one of the best plastics for heat or vacuum forming and, of course, has excellent bonding characteristics, not only to itself but to other commonly used plastics. ABS has just the desired amount of flexibility to minimize shock. ABS is a thermoplastic terpolymer combining the best qualities of the Acrylics, Butyrates, and Styrenes. It is more than half again as rigid as its cousin, Styrene, and size for size, is nearly as rigid as brass. Extremely resistant to most acids and alkalies, the ABS lustrous surface is unaffected by most chemicals, even lacquer - a property unheard of in the early plastics. Unlike wood and brass, PLASTRUCT ABS Traditional Structural Shapes require no priming, sanding, or sealing to enhance its hard finish. But like even the most primitive plastics, ABS bonds easily, quickly, and with a minimum of fuss. Plastic can be sawed, blade cut, drilled, lathe-turned, carved, sanded and filled. Most standard woodworking tools may be used on plastic and it will not splinter. Plastic parts join in seconds with small amounts of liquid solvent cement. For bonding plastic sheet materials to foam, wood or Masonite, Contact Cement can be used. For large sheet stock, many professionals prefer to use counter sunk screws for attachment. A spray adhesive is sometimes easier for small jobs". Hope this helps. I'll find out more from Phil tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
