This is my combat patrol box so far. I have been experimenting with bases when i figure out what i like best i will make the same for all of them probably. This is my skill level after painting around 20 mini's so far in my life. It is difficult for me with small details because of my generalized anxiety disorder so my hands shake a bit.
My dreadnought from my combat patrol is almost done. Just need a few touches here and there.
My first time doing these plasma gun light looking plasma and also the exhaust with the purple and blue metallic. Also never tried that. So far im happy with it. Now i just need the rest of the army.
Glue, paint and paintbrushes ready to go. Cant wait to get started and see the final result.
Bought the paladin pack a year ago to get the experience painting mini's so i felt confident taking on this big box.
I am wondering are you guys who are making these beautiful ships even using all these workable items thats on the ship like reactors, defensive systems and other ugly modules. Do you even use them and just showcase these ships in here?
Maybe im missing something since i have been on Intel almost 20 years and i dont quite understand the mechanisms and settings in my MSI MAG X870 tomahawk bios.
But seeing a few places that some did the settings to set PBO negative 15 which i thought it meant undervolting the CPU. But i just dont understand that my CPU is around 45 celsius in idle with an Arctic liquid freezer 3 pro 360mm. Is it just normal or do i need to do some more bios adjustments.
Originally i was to get a Dayton driver but no one has it in stock in Europe so the store offered me a Scanspeak 26W/4558T00 Discovery for the same price but now im back to square one. I do have an idea that the internal volume would be between 55-60 Liters and the port is a 10cm diameter and 50cm long. Wouldnt you guys say thats a good way to go?

Im about to buy a Dayton audio 10" subwoofer. Dayton Audio - RSS265HF-4 10" Reference HF Subwoofer 4 Ohm
I was just wondering what internal volume and port size is recommended for this driver. It for my home cinema and they are supposed to complement my Polk R200 and the rest ofc. Daytons site says optimum case size for a vented box 1.5 ft.³ but it sounds rather small or is it just me? Also i dont have good enough experience and tools to build the vent so i rather just go with a round pipe.
Here in Denmark we have a supposedly DIY speaker guru called Troels Graversen. I must say his entire house is filled with speakers and components. And he does have the experience. Bought a pair of bookshelves from him and they sounded amazing.
But in an article of his he mentions that one cannot simply calculate a crossover by just knowing case volume and ports and drivers. Because like he says you need some special listening equipment with a microphone because the front of the speaker as in distance from the different drivers and also the size of the front and so on.
Is this true or is this just for high end builders. I just assume normal people like me couldnt tell the difference.
I have 2 old Dynaudio 15 W-75 8 ohm drivers and a Dynaudio tweeter. But i dont know how big the box should be or where to calculate it. Also it would be ideal if it also could calculate the stats on the crossover components. I have a hard time figuring out how to use some of the online tools. I can only figure out how to add one driver in these online tools like speakerboxlite.com
I scrapped the drivers from my old bookshelf speakers and my current center is a cheap not so good sounding Dali. These Dynaudio drivers will do a much better job im sure.
