Step 4: Cutting the Side Angles
Found some old Angles on my warehouse
cut them with the saw and assembled them to Plexiglas angles
Due to weight issue ( the Battery ) i had to use at the bottom a strong kinda heavy angle
cut them with the saw and assembled them to Plexiglas angles
Due to weight issue ( the Battery ) i had to use at the bottom a strong kinda heavy angle
Step 5: Assemble All Pieces
Step 6: Create Bottom Legs
from an old broom stick i cut a few pieces
Step 7: Create Internal Support Angles for the Rear Plexiglas
In order for the Boombox to be stable and not shiver we need to strengthen it via Small angles
Step 8: Tear Down the Plexiglas Protection Nylon
Step 9: Glue Wallpaper on the Angles
Step 10: Reattach the " New " Angles
Step 11: Soldering Time
Solder a small Capacitor to split the Frequency between the Woofer and Tweeter
Step 12: Create TWO Custom Bolts for the Charging Ports
Step 13: Drill Inside the Amplifier
Drill inside the amplifier to attach it to the upper case
