They're really doing great work with these. CNC cut pieces, dado construction, all precision cut and fit. They're impressive and I thought you might want to see a few photos from an inside view.

The 12π prototype was cut by hand and assembled using glue and wood screws. You can see a write-up of the prototype assembly process in the post called "12π basshorn - Coming together". Information about the design is available in the post called "12π basshorn subwoofer". The ones we're making in the shop are from CAD drawings and cut on a CNC, so fitment is perfect. Makes alignment of the pieces much easier too.
