This is my first build log.
It is for some headphones I scrapped together.
At first, I had no intention to make a build log out of this. due to that, the first few parts will not have any pictures.
Lets get started!
The collection phase:
I acquired some broken SK Hesh headphones- I used the drivers from these.
I found a 3.5 mm f/f cable at a thrift shop and hacked it up.
I got some safety noise-canceling ear muff things (For shooting)
The build phase:
First I took off the ear pads and foam from the ear muffs.
Then I drew up a driver mount in Rhino which was printed through a 3d printer.
(The black one is from the Hesh headphones)
After that, I did a size check. The notches in the side where off by about 1 cm so I had to use an xacto knife and make a few modifications.
(During the check, I put the drivers in but while taking them out had broke a few of the brackets)
Then I taped the mounts to the ear pad plastic and put the drivers back in.
(Drivers went in after pic)
With that section done: time for the housing modifications.
Threaded a wire through the sleeve around the top and then drilled a few holes for the wires, and threaded the wires through the holes.
Then drilled a hole for the jack cordÂ
(Might look a little funky due to resizing)
Then I layed out everything and got ready to solder.
And then soldered
After all that I put it together and put cloth over the mount to keep it clean.
(Much tape required)
Hopefully that was not too painful to read. I am a bit tired so everything seems alright to me.
Gallery has the final pictures.
Thanks for taking a look at my log.
