Safety Sally alert !!!
Don't crosscut on the table saw using both the miter gauge and rip fence at the same time the way you did. If the wood gets cocked between the blade and the fence it will kick back and come at you so fast you won't even be able to think of moving out of the way before it's into you.
To get repeated crosscuts, clamp a block of wood to the fence well before reaching the blade and register your stock against it. When the stock is being cut, it will not be up against the fence, so much less risk of a kickback.
Even better, check out a video or two about building a crosscut sled. It will quickly become your favorite table saw jig.
Dwight Rahl kickback is scary as all hell. I got kick back and bruised my leg and dented my car (I was working outside)
same here got it in the hip won't do that again
Good way to nail yourself to the wall behind you.
Microjig's Dado stop is a good tool to act as a crosscut stop, plus it is great for repeatability when doing dado cuts.
While I would generally agree with you, he used the miter gauge to support the material that was in between the blade and the fence. The reason you are not supposed to use a miter gauge with the fence is because it normally leaves an unsupported piece trapped between the blade and the fence which can vibrate, turn and cause kickback. The way Kirby did it he supported the piece and continued to push it. The same way one would if they were just pushing it with their hand, a push stick, or a micro jig gripper. It has no more of a chance at having kickback then any other cut.
What a beautiful job. Everything was going extremely well until the drilling for the hooks and the speaker placement which was both beyond ...shit...
But the wood working was proper.
Kirby, I want to thank you for all the effort and energy you put into your videos and providing all the info that you do. Although I have plenty of woodworking experience, the speaker side of things is completely foreign to me. You've done a beyond professional job at conveying all this info to beginners and have proven time and time again to be a valued member of the youtube community.
What a great video! Thank you 😊
glad to see you back dude
Good to be back! Thanks for watching!
was just looking at those speakers yesterday while trying to find a good speaker for a single or easily crossoverable (if that's a word) application. was actually wondering " has Kirby used this one before?" recognized it by it's surround in the preview pic and had to see this build. great job. I'm a woodworker and love to see diy boxes with great finishes and u always come through. keep it up 👍
Super cool idea -- I love how they look amazing on their own, but also fit right into your bookshelf decor.
p.s., did I just get a first? :)
I thought the same thing haha
What a beauty good design book shelf speakers
You sir, are a master woodworker....and a true artist at your craft.
Wow a great way to build speaker boxes and mount the speakers....the sound track is to nice and easy... just the way it should be.Thanks man!
Marvelous I daresay, now Ill have something to do during lockdown...
nice build Kirby! Your circle jig for your router seems to be pretty accurate, I think it is so rewarding when you get a perfect fit. :)
Wasn't it MDF that wood that he was using??? How did Kirby finish the surface so smooth and it looks glowing??? What things do you need to finish the surface like that?
in the process of building my girlfriend a compact 2.1 system for her bookshelf. thanks to your vids i got some great ideas.
I love the datalle and the attention you put to your work. greetings from Guatemala
The finish you achieved on the MDF was amazing. What was your process?
Wow!!!!
I like you style
Excellent job!
Stressing the observation of safety already mentioned.
Besides the chosen positions for the sonoflectors are not the best, acoustically speaking.
All the best!
Kirby, I would love to hear your review of those Tang Band full range drivers. I’ve been looking at them for a while.
Jody Claborn I don't think Kirby is the guy whose opinion you are looking for. His woodworking skills are great but he doesn't use any stuffing in his enclosures, no bracing, no baffle step filters no nothing. So all in all, the woofers don't get the opportunity to perform as good as they can/were intended to. Maybe try a forum when you are looking for opinions on speakers
They appear to be coaxials and it even appears that they have an extra set of terminals (8:18).
sweet build. 10 minutes of that music made me numb by the end, though 😅
Some new tools! Good work man. Like others have said that cross cut was a bit dangerous.
i am in love with this channel
Good content : Check
nice music : Check
perfection of your builds : Check
Good
Dude. That's art. Congrats!!
Just got home from a horrible 12 hour graveyard shift to find this beauty! Thank you!!
Constantly inspired by you
Rat thích 😍 kênh của anh
spectacular
Hi Kirby hope you are okay, I have a question if you wouldn't mind. Did you build or purchase the router adapter you use for circular cutting? What would one call such an adapter? Also would you ever look into building panel speakers as a video? I wouldn't mind learning a little about that too. Thanks for all your hard work, its mesmerising to watch and a handy learning tool for someone like me.
, very nice. I absolutely love Tang Band full range driver's.
I want to build myself a pair of their 8 inch full range bamboo wizzer cone speakers out of some very nice exotic wood or even bamboo some day. I plan on using them with my Fluance rt-81 record player with a Dayton audio t- amp rated at 120 RMS per channel.
Good work!
Mais uma obra de arte.
Amazing.! Super cool idea
8:18 It appears that it's a coaxial driver if you look into the center piece, and it appears to have an extra set of terminals for the central tweeter. But this dude seems to be ignoring the second set of connecters. Is it a coaxial driver or is the center piece just a phase plug?
Nice video
We have the same watch! Seiko SNK!
wow nice
Beautiful work again!! The fit of that speaker in the recess is impressive!! How did you achieve that black finish? I can't seem to get it right... I feel the port was nicer before a piece of plastic was set in there. Maybe a solid wood port all the way could be interesting! I've had good comment on it when I do it...anyway, I'm awaiting the comment on the sound of those TB, I'm very curious to see if they are worth their price!
Homemade, well made and beauty to the eye! But should you make such small speakers yourself? Must have tools and a house! At the same time, you could buy smaller and good speakers relatively cheaply and redesign the look of the speaker yourself! For example, Elac Debut 2.0 Bookshelf Speakers
DB52.
your built quallity is so incredible ♥
I just saw that driver on sale I want to use it for a center channel for my TV . I been building speakers but I don't know how to do the crossover so I been buying them premade. I know it's not perfect but I need to learn. I joined his monthly thing to try to get some help. But I don't know
What type of tape are you using to hold the wood while routing the circles?
What filler are you using to make the MDF smooth? Looks like spackling paste, but can't tell.
Yay! You're back!
Hi Kirby, nice video and very nice speakers !! Will you use exciter speakers in an upcoming video ?
Once again some quality work right there . what are the specks of those drivers
High end speakers 🔊 plus a lot of work to finish them then you downgraded them with the hooks and bit of old rope at the end 😂
R lostboii right...??? Damn that was ugly... LoL
Sometimes it is really difficult to understand some design features to someone. it doesn't mean it is ugly. Your misunderstanding is just yours.
Isolation bro
R lostboii , why do you say he downgraded his speakers, theyer his speakers not yours ass hole. do your own project if you can dummy.
leave people alone
PRecisely. Speakers cannot be hung. Need insulation. Need to be as heavy as possible. Woodwork is quite good though.:-(
Great video, as always, hope the speakers sound as nice as they look, even if they are being brought down by those Oakland Athletics bums. Hopefully they are being offset by Red Sox autographs.
sweet.
I noticed how on your walnut speaker build that you glued the natural wood front on, then taped it off and painted the rest of the cabinet. Here you painted the cabinet before you glued the natural front on. Which way do you prefer to do it, or do you not think it makes a difference? Thanks!
thagoose480 paint it before the front, it's a lot easier and doesn't mess up your front if you screw up.
Great to see you back Kirby and i´m pleased to see all 10 fingers still intact(saw that bandaid tho) XD. I love the way you shoot your vids and the music you put on is always Very nice. Keep ´em coming dude :)
keren..! idola
Um belo trabalho( nice work) mas, para fazer essa caixinha tosca?
How do you think, are those drivers good to use in TQWP?
Is there an alternative to partsexpress? Because it‘s just to expensive to ship to Austria/Germany
what kind of wood did you use on the front?
I wanna see your take on a car subwoofer enclosure
What wood do you use for your builds?
What were your thoughts on how they sound. I assume that because they're being suspended/isolated in the air, that it would improve quality?
JR No, in this way loudspeaker can move so stereo image is not stable.
Fabio Cardelli Makes sense.
Fabio Cardelli I think more the height equality. The best position is ear heiht eqal distance from each other and listen from the same distance. Eqal sided triangle. This hanging problem never thought. Usually either wall consols or floorstands are used.
Great project, great video!
Hi-Fi Have
Damn, i want that shirt !!! any plan on puting them for sale ?
yey, you're back ! awesome, couldn't help but like and comment before seing it :D .
Love the speaker terminals you use - went to the link - Parts Express charges $53 postage to Send to Australia via USPS for terminals..sorry mate - love your channel, but aint buying through your links..(I went to Amazon - maybe put a link to them..just a thought..)
Only 53 Dollars to you??
I would pay 128€ to get them send to were I live (128€ should be relatively the same as 120$ I think)
Which type of wood is that?
can you do an acrylic speaker
kirby can you make some studio speaker
you make these box is beautiful . How much for pair ? for 3inch full range speakers
Literally yesterday I thought that it's been a while since you posted anything and then BAM! Happy to see you're back!
You spend a lot of time on the box but little time on the rest.
without tweeter to customize crossover, you never get good sound! You can buy the most expensive without getting good sound! Bass pipes on small boxes do not give good sound!
Speaker placement is everything, and this would be a fail in that department.
Freedom Fighters Florida , it's not always so cut and dry. who cares dude. he has a sense of style & decor I say.
relax and go with the flow.
it is his house, his video, his speakers & his choice.
so piss off
Let's see your speaker set up then
excuse me, what is the thing that you use to colour the wood black? of course its paint but what kind of paint? haha i dont want to sound like a total stupid but i want to know, thank you
What drivers were you using ?
Beautiful build bro love your vids. So excited so see them in my sub box
Was just wondering where you’ve been. Glad to see another video. Noticed some fingers are bandaged up in the video - woodworking accident?
Jiu-Jitsu accident :/ haha Thanks for watching!
05:32: me when i blow off dust and accidentally spit
inspired by soundblab?
Еverything was superb until the time came with the twine.
It's a bit amateur.
PLease explain flush mounting tech
Kirby, great build, man! I dig these videos and the time you take in set up and editing. It has really inspired me lately to try to see my Instagram feed pics as not just information but also as an artistic expression. Thanks man! Take care
I've noticed! Great work! Thanks for watching
Nice vidéo .. but i really want soundtest on your DYE
Sound test is coming soooooon. Thanks for watching!
hey! switch and lever sent me! subscribed :)
Anyone ELSE ever watch these videos full screen on their phone, and catch themselves wanting to blow the dust/shavings away on close ups of the drill press in action? Lol
Maybe it's just me.
Russell Borrego I do it all the time maybe its a woodworkers thing?
Right?!? And no one around you understands why you keep blowing at your phone...
Well...i have a Dremel 👍
Form over function. Speakers should be same level. Imaging will be terrible. But, they look like a "fill the room with sound" purpose. Not a "sit down for critical listening" application. So probably not a big deal.
Waiting for sound tests like your early speakers
Sound test will be coming in an upcoming Build Talk video. Thanks for watching!
It's not like you can hear anything from the sound test, unless you have the exact same set of speakers. Each set of speakers have a character that can't be listened to unless you're right there next to them. All you could really tell would be the frequency response, but you couldn't make a judgment of character or sound pressure level without quantitative data.
1:36 takes some beautiful wood and stains it black 😮
I think all wood has a right to be called beautiful but that stuff is either pine or fir and is literally the cheapest milled lumber you can buy
Ah, was really hoping to watch the stain dry.
please sound test kirby?
Everything was ok until you placed them in that odd way, they should be at the same height right? otherwise it would be so annoying to hear music trough them especially panned effects
Wireless I'm guessing
Se jodió todo cuando le pusieron las armellas y lo colgaron con esa cuerda.
SEE, this is what happens when the girlfriend steps in.. you are forced to replace your massive lounge room speakers with these.. :p
logan paul likes this video
and then the front baffle just falls off a month later
?????
Nice build, as always. Atrocious music, as always.
your personal taste
the music is always good for me
Man I agree. By the end of the video that song was killing me
What a pain in....
Surely not for audio pourpose
Nice build and awfull way to place them
There are NO solid wood board speaker boxes available on market today, usually MDF or plywood, easily water destroyable
solid wood introduces natural resonant frequencies into the box and is a bad choice for making speakers. MDF and Plywood have random particle distributions that eliminate that. The best audio systems are made with it for a reason. Not just to keep build costs cheap. The wood is absolutely beautiful though, and its disappointing that we cant get kind of quality look with good audio. :\
I was so wore out by that song by the end of the video. 😂🤣😂🤣
