In Reply to: Building Apollo look alike posted by Saffier on September 2, 2006 at 05:16:51:
If you review the instructions in your Prometheus manual you will see that the baffle outside dimension(400mm)minus the inside diameter quoted for the wideband (270mm)will leave 130mm divided by 2 to give you 65mm per side. The actual Apollo's are 60mm per side. This may be fine for a separate upper baffle but if you plan on a floorstanding baffle then 65mm will be better for strength and lack of flexing for a long baffle.
To duplicate the Apollo shape simply use those dimensions and a compass and make two intersecting circles. Then use your compass or french curve to make reverse curves where the circles intersect. Adjust to your own aesthetics. It is fairly basic and it seems as though your skill level will achieve this easily. The baffle should be at least 25mm thick for strength as there is not much material left to make a rigid mount for the wideband and tweeter. Good luck.
