supermanx Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 OK, Crown Guards on the old joshua sub were way too thick, I had a lv that was out of commision so I figured I try my hand at mod'ing crown guards. I think they turned out OK, but I need to go back and touch them up some. Better then stock but certainly not perfect or up to the work of any of the resident experts here.

rbj69 Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 that looks very nice , just a minor suggestion , go back and make the inside corners sharper and not as round and u done yourself a nice job (which is not necessary but would clean it up a little bit better is all)also it could be just the picture angle and magnification, but i think u did a very nice job overall nothing like the feeling of self satisfaction joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 "Not good as others"... bs... those look just as good as anyone's work. Congrats!!! Shaping them is not difficult at all. You just need some patience... just do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermanx Posted October 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 I plan on getting a gen crown and good oem or gen tube... When I pull the rep tube off I plan on cleaning up the insides. Can anyone verify if the case should be counter sunk a bit for the new tube for the crown to sit flush (Thought I read it in an old thread, have to search again)?

If the new crown tube is not flat where it sits its a goo idea to do it. Cheers, vaccum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacDad22 Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 Superman- Way to go.. those CG's look excellent and the first time I did my own CG's which was less than a month ago it gave me a great sense of self accomplishment.
