Nice Work! I am in the middle of doing this to flare a grey sewage pipe but did not have a smooth surface to push it on, so it split and collapsed. Now I found a smooth surface to push it on. I wanna flare it from 110 - 160mm to fit my existing kitchen fume extractor fan on it and keep it in the attic where it makes less noise.
I like the process of flaring the port like this. I thought about adding some upright pieces to 4 sides of the lazy susan to keep the mold from sliding off when you were heating/spinning the port.
Thanks for the great demonstration,is it ok to use 2 pieces of inch and a half pipe instead of one piece of four inch ? i dont have enough space the 4 inch.
flares may look pretty but builders must keep in mind that any flare design will not affect the bass output quality, its simply for cosmetic appearance
Is that a sheetrock jack in the background? Also I have asked others this question a not got a response.. Can I run 2 Taramps Smart3k's to a common chamber 4 12''s. Two on each amp. If so how there is no phase adj.
So if I say have a port length of 12 inches that would set my tune once I stalled unflared , but then I went to flare l both ends , would that effect the tuning now having flared ends ? Not sure if this little change effects tuning if any or at all . Because to me seems it could effect it because of the preset length determine the frequency ...just. question I had
If you add flares to the 12" pipe, like using epoxy, it will not change the tuning. If you flare the ends of the 12" pipe, its not going to be 12" any more. It might be 9" and that changes the tuning. Rule of thumb is that flares are not counted as far as port length is concerned.
I use term-lab and it says to use a 6x10.25 flared port. Do I cut 10.25 and them flare it? Also does the flare have to be the same size on each end? Great video by the way.
AMICUSTOMS Whats better a L port box or Aero port box and does wattage and size of sub matter for each type of box, like is one better for lower wattage system or higher wattage system?
Was hopin to see u at slamology andy! will u be attending any shows this year within a 3 state radius of Pennsylvania? the Carolinas are kinda pushin it for me..12hr drive. but id doit if I knew u b there.
Brother love the video, can u please please tell me how many inches extra would i have to add to my length of port for this? Thank ahead of time & thanks for video bro.
I want to build a class 4 box that fits on the rear deck of a 2004 grand marquis. I want the port tuned as low as possible. I love a low end monster. and I want it pass thru the rear seats arm rest so the bass will only enter the cabbin (no trunk rattle). I want to use 4 sundown audio 8". my questions are with the airspace , and a is port possible for the build. well over all is it possible to build and if so any possible combinations that will accomplish the job will be appreciated.
i used an aeroport calculator and it says i need an 8 inch port. does it mean that my port length including the flares from end to end needs to be 8 inches?
Good process but i do notice its not a even flare for a flat surface. Id suggest a taller center on the mold to keep it from wobbling or a exterior brace to go up higher around the outside to keep it centered at you press the mold
So friend, not even the RE told me the duct's measure to tune the box, like length and diameter, the model of my subwofeer is RE SEX 10D4 V1, the manual says to make a box dutada of 35.4 liters plus the duct, could help me?
I do have a question.. is it absolutely necessary to partially aero flare the opposite end of the pvc for a sub box on the end that goes into the box ? I never knew that is there any gain or loss to doing that

Does the length and diameter of the port affect the sound? Is there a way to calculate how lone the tube needs to be or do you just tune your amp to get the right sound?
I think that using his rule of thumb for the tube and round over radii is just a short cut to ensure you have approximately/at least double the cross section area at the flared end compared to the basic pipes area. Thats just my guess though
+Sebastian Williamas Aero increases efficiency as it allows the air to exit smoother and faster. Yes it affects the tuning you have to add length due to the flare.
Hey man quick question. I'm going to build a under seat front facing box for my 08 Silverado for 4 soundqubed 8's. Probably going to lift my seat 3 inches to make room for the biggest box possible, what size aero port do you recommend? And what length?
could u give me some box advice for a dd redline 800 18.. pretty similar to hdc4. long story short I've made 2 boxes.. 1 6.75 cuft after port and sub and 110sqin of port 24in long.. kills lows 171.1db at 44hz. box 2 5.2cuft after displacement 19.5sqin of port per cube, 18in long.. sounds loud as shit but did a 146.9 at 48hz. in a bravada at cab I believe is 44hz so why is my "spl" box down on score... need some help
thin wall schedule 20(eggshell) I watch that stuff crack, split and shatter all the time. save yourself the time and effort on re-doing that stuff. use the schedule 40 the time and effort spent. more than satisfy you for longevity.
juggernautxtr AZ? Not sure who that is but the blue box in this video has same pipe I use in the video. And he plays it everyday and that was going on 3 years ago. So I think the pipe is fine, but I could be wrong lol.
+Spoogethat volume was fine for me on asus n56jr laptop aside: some skateboard grip tape on that lower spindle would keep it from slipping ...or even electrical tape in a cross stitch pattern or even some medical gauge tape would work.
Thanks for posting never thought it would have melted or molded as easily as it did great work

Thick walled pvc works great, I built one today.
What u use to do it?
@@johnkintner1637 heat gun and doggie bowl
Nice video. Thank you for sharing.
Koool, I'll be attempting my first aero ports box. Doing 4 6" ports for 3 15s..To buy 4 6" would cost me 150 bucks..Thanx for the info.
Thank you for all you do bro!
Awesome work brother!👍👏
Thanks for the great demonstration,is it ok to use 2 pieces of inch and a half pipe instead of one piece of four inch ? i dont have enough space the 4 inch.
thats pretty cool of making an aero port. thanks.
Ithis is what i visioned. Thank u
What do you think about having the port towards the driver side? Is it supposed to be twice as loud? Or
nice video! thanks for the info!
Very clever! Thumbs up!
i use a heatgun and a metal mixing bowl
easy, efficient and effective, my kind of diy
Nice idea bro very useful atleat for me, .......love you bro from INDIA.
Excellent video vlog and how to make areoports
I think that you should try a thicker PVC pipe for more resonance.
That's awesome!
Awesome video came across this channel late in my life.
Also what speakers were you making this the blue ones in the end of video looks nice was brief
Fkng outstanding!👍👍👍👍👍

I will be giving this a try
If you flare both ends, how do you get it in the box? One end has to be smaller than the other
Yes onensode is slight smaller than the mounting port diameter
AMICUSTOMS awesome video. Keep these up please that was helpful

Bud, do you have a 10" aero port laying around, need it to be 17 " long...
I'll buy it of course...
What’s better aeroport or side port ? It’s for a 8 inch massive hippo
I use term-lab and it says to use a 6x10.25 flared port. Do I cut 10.25 and them flare it? Also does the flare have to be the same size on each end? Great video by the way.
Saludos desde Colombia y gracias por tomarse parte de su tiempo en enseñarnos parte de su saviduria
I use PAM non-stick cooking spray, when baking ports.

I wonder if I can do that with jb weld or something like that instead of that expensive looking stuff he used?
What he used is cheaper
i used an aeroport calculator and it says i need an 8 inch port. does it mean that my port length including the flares from end to end needs to be 8 inches?
Do you think this would work with PP pipe aswell? PP is the most common material where I am from
Wow, yours is bigger than mine..
your heat gun that is. Holy massive heat gun! What's it's rating?
nice work mate that is helpful
Great idea. Thanks
when building a bandpass subwoofer box is it better to have ports or slots & should it be larger on the outside or does that matter?
Reverend Timothy Petrey really depends on the design there isn't a one size fits all answer to this question.
Good process but i do notice its not a even flare for a flat surface. Id suggest a taller center on the mold to keep it from wobbling or a exterior brace to go up higher around the outside to keep it centered at you press the mold
Incorrect but thanks for the feedback the flare is even, and the mold works fine I have made dozens of flares with this same mold no issues.
@@AMICUSTOMS the tube standing on the table looks uneven and tilted
@@stevenb320 it might look it but it isn’t, the flare is even
So cool! Thanks brother!
Hi, Which gives better performance in SPL, aeroport or long vents? thanks..
You cut out the circles with a jigsaw? How the heck you get them so perfect?
Also where did you get the pipe? I can't find those ANYWHERE!!, I've called like 10 places, searched online, etc
Nice thanks!

While it's not absolutely necessary, it reduces port turbulence/chuffing noise.
@garrettrichards5559 just line it with self adhesive felt, hobby lobby
Where did you get the thin pvc?
good explain,
Wonderful! Thanks!
Nice vid man thanks
Good video man nice work
andrew, whats your thoughts on aero vs slot ports. i got 2 hdc3 15s and ampere 3800 and i wanna get the most clean low bass with ability to hairtrick.
My view is under 10 cubes box should run aero, over 10 cube do slot port. That is what I have done and tested and seems to be the cut off.

The length and diameter determine the tuning. It’s a science. I do not suggest guessing at it.
Nice video, do as many of these as you can
Thanks , that is a great way to do a flare on a port thanks for the info , ...
question if you have a 3 sub box, three chambers inside, would I need to put a port in each chamber???
if each chamber is sealed off from one another, then yes you'd need 3 ports
Drew Rogers thanks man appreciate it
np, good luck on your build
Awesome technique , keepum coming
should have some clamps to hold while you turning it to make the port so it wont slide around if that makes sense
Oh yeah ,love that mold
Hi buddy do you sell aero ports? I would like to buy two in 5" x 20" ports if you do sell.
Where’s the best place to buy pipe this thin??
how does an aero port differ from a regular port. also does the flared ends affect the tuning.
+Sebastian Williamas Aero increases efficiency as it allows the air to exit smoother and faster. Yes it affects the tuning you have to add length due to the flare.
Thanks
Would shortening an aeroport lower or raise the tuning frequency?
Tee it would raise tuning
thank you!
i like the box looks biutiful men
Awesome
where can i buy this thin walled PVC, cant find that here in NYC
BOB carvey what bout Home Depot or lowes???
no you cannot buy it there.
BOB carvey. do u have True Value hard ware store or a 84 lumber???
@BOB carvey there are also online retailers but like the other people said, a hardware store is the cheapest and fastest option.
yes i have true value store
Thats perfect bro

any hints or tips or follow ups from this video boss?

How do you size the port for a box?
Great video thanks. Can you design a mould for me?
bout time someone has done a video on how to do this, however your video volume was low and hard to hear, thanks though for the vid
Turn the volume up more lol? Thanks
