The Munny Project


Come to the show! Details in the sidebar —>

Instructables Coming Soon

To anyone who stumbles over this blog, I just wanted to give you the heads up. Jesse and I are still planning to post up a full instructional post, we just havent gotten around to it yet.

As an update the speakers are still 100% kicking here in our living room. It seems the amp is giving up before the speakers! w00t.

Thank you… Thoughts anyone?

We’d like to thank everyone who has come to the site to check out our creation. Again it was a huge success and a fun adventure in creativity and production. After a little more craziness settles down in both our lives we will be tweaking the blog and making it more of a ‘how to’ with detailed information and images so you too can create the Munny of your dreams. Or you can use it as a baseline to make something even better!

If you have any comments or suggestions please feel free to post, twitter, gmail us and we will try to fit in your ideas.

And the bigger question to ask… what comes next!

Mega = Painted

’nuff said.

Thoughts as we Near the End.

So the project is near it’s close. We are going to prime and paint the mega over the next few days. The one real afterthought I have now is that this crazy concoction of a munny set has taken over my, and I am sure Jesse’s, life.

It’s been amazing to produce something like this, and the return from people who have heard it has been so successful. Now I can safely say: bring on the art show on Thursday. I can’t wait to reveal our creation to the public.

Munny subwoofer. Final test before paint.

Hey Everyone,
Just tested the Munny subwoofer which hasn’t been tested since we glued/sealed the speaker and weighted the body down….

It sounds AMAZING. Even better than before. Way more of the sound is being transfered through to the floor since the body is so full of wax. Also the sealing around the face prevents air from escaping around the speaker. I cant believe the change in sound for this speaker and am amazed. Priming of the Mega Munny Subwoofer starts tomorrow or saturday depending on when the sealant dries.

I am excited to see this bad boy painted!

Sub Woofer Weigh Down

So we have made considerable advances on the Munny Project in the last 3 days. One of which was one hell of a hiccup we had with the sub woofer’s first assembly attempt. Which I might add left both me and Matt terrified for over a day. However we have over come this obstacle and are moving forward.

The Munny Sub is very head heavy and we were worried it might tip over if it is bumped into or the bass pumped too loudly. So we milled over a few ideas of how to weight the sucker down. The chosen method was to fill him with pretty stones and then fill it up with hot wax because it would fill every little nook and cranny and keep the stones from vibrating.

Below is a diagram of what’s going on inside of the Mega Munny’s body right now.
