Slow progress
The Phase IV Mk2 is proving much more complicated to build than the Mk1. Partly it's the shape, but what seems to be holding me up is sequencing. I roughed out the top and bottom and these need to be trimmed. I probably need to paint the cabinet (which will be white) before gluing in the baffle (black). I need to make sure that the crossover will fit though the woofer's hole in the baffle which means getting the mounting board for the crossover built, located and then removed again... I am still figuring out details as I go such as how to mount the crossover, how to connect it to the external links in the base that connect to the drivers. I also learned something about quality: the more linked steps there are in a manufacturing process, the more quality matters. Screwing up (for me) is almost inevitable; but it matters more when a large number of antecedent steps are wasted as a result.
