zx82net Bookshelf Speaker (Hexibase remix)

cults3d

This is a custom design of Hexibase's bookshelf speaker using Tang Band W3-2141 drivers. The internal volume, port area, and port length are all matched to the original design, but I've modified the port into the shape of a stand. I've also added reinforcement to the inside walls and given it a touch of Bauhaus style. (The reinforcement is taken into account in the internal volume). This prints in three parts in the orientation shown, with the port on its side. The port and front face should be glued into the enclosure. The port and front panel don't need any supports, but the enclosure should have local supports around where the port enters the body. I haven't printed this yet due to my printer being out of action, but I have the drivers and can't wait to give it a try. I've added 5mm holes for binding posts, as well as features for M3 bolts and nuts to hold the drivers in place. It's recommended to use good gasket material, following Hexibase's advice. The Fusion 360 files are included, allowing you to make modifications to your heart's content. The design is heavily parametrized in Fusion 360, making it easy to change wall thickness without breaking the design, but always check the result after changing parameters. I plan to print this with wood-filled PLA for the enclosure and carbon fiber-filled PLA for the front panel and stand, but feel free to experiment. Let me know how you get on, and I'll be happy to fix any problems that arise.
