Suggestions for 3-Way full range DJ PA speaker and box build for first time DIYer.

Tripod mount and handles are not going to affect the response.

The primary focus of "Flex Your Mettle" is designing crossovers for specific combinations of woofers and waveguides; it' not "mix 'n' match." A PC board suitable for building many of them is available:

Pick one of the designs and build it. "Deluxe" uses 3012LF and Pete's design crossover. SR is a different combination. You can't swap components between them....

Wow. I just watched that video and the parts express video of the guy making a board on a piece of wood. That doesn't look very hard at all.

I'm looking at Bill's site here and these figures look very impressive. Just to get an idea, how much would I be looking at to build 2 Omnitop 12's with Kappalite 3012HO's and a tuba 60 with say, Kappalite 3012LF's? Would that be a good combo?

Questions about my cabs are best addressed on my forum, where you'll get replies from those who use them. As for the T60, if you don't have a cube van, road crew and audiences in the +1,000 range you don't need or want the T60.
