I Like to Make Stuff Makes a Custom Soundwave Speaker System

Transformers

The maker YouTube channel I Like to Make Stuff covers builds from practical household amenities to cosplay and from home-grown workshop craft to 3D printing. The latest video details how to construct a Soundwave boombox case for a Bluetooth speaker system!

This isn’t the first foray into the world of Transformers for Bob Clagett and his channel – he’s previously created a replica Matrix of Leadership and a lights-and-sound-empowered Ion Blaster, both scaled for human hands.

In this case, the build starts with vector tracing a photo of his original Soundwave toy and CNC milling, but Clagett emphasizes that there are many ways to tackle the build and alternative routes along the way, while a lot of the same techniques will apply. The finished product looks like a handsome functional display piece to serve as a speaker system for a nerdy workshop or game room.

Inspired to create your own? You can share your plans or any thoughts about the video on the Allspark Forums, on our Discord server, or in our Facebook Group. (Or if you have an awesome custom build of your own, share it in our Wheeljack’s Workshop customs forum!)
