I'm dyin to drop it in and see if it sounds worth a damn but then I'll probably have to take the whole box back out and flip it over to get the sub out, I thought about tapping two opposing mounting holes so I can thread in a larger bolt/eyelet into the basket to pull it out
-
Box about done, I think the fit is to tight to wrap in any kind of material though. Started filling screw holes and scratches to paint. Stole some wire from living room tower knukoncept 12/4 Wiring both coils out of enclosure I will prob drop it on amp @.5 ohm at some point

mornin been with Verizon a while for cell, overall pretty satisfied. down here I get better coverage than other carriers compared to friends/family that have others. I've got two unlimited everything lines @150/month each (grandfathered in from unlimited data days for $30/month) we used to just keep like +/- 400 minutes and texts and bills were under 100/month each but little woman kept blasting past limits every other month so bumped up a little 1000min/texts and it was only another couple bux to go unlimited everything so we jus did it and never have to worry about getting a $600 phone bill again. I couldn't really see paying less for unlimited talk/text but had a cap on data for "less" money for the 30/month unlimited data I could only get 2gb capped, either way it worked out the same we each use 4-5gb a month, kid streams shows movies games while on vacation, when we first moved I wifi hotspot about 60gb fpr a month till cable was hooked up

about 5 minutes with the belt sander and the sub OD fits snugggg, there were two noticeable spots that werent quite round, fits perfect now. gotta grab my buddys router sometime this week, and another sheet of ply , to redo the ring that the speaker will actually mount to. I am also going to reinforce it a little bit more. the ring that recesses the sub it really only about an inch larger than the cut out- i'm not really comfortable with that glue joint having my sub hangin off it. pics outside, didnt realize how crappy cell took pics inside
-
thanks! fiberglassed this past weekend also, no progress pics i did it in between rain- which sucked even more cause it took forever to cure between layers, ended up hitting it with the heat gun. box has about 5-7 layers throughout, painted the inside of it with some rubber coating i'll take some of the box tomorrow if i can get home early enough.
-
anddd it dont fit.....recessed rings are a little tight to let sub fall in with the gasket i should be able to massage it to work pretty easy. and the ring for the sub to mount to is to loose for my liking but i never glued it to the others so its easy enough to re do
-
random pictures, fiberglass crap, i picked up some 12 gauge/8 conductor wire too, i was looking for 12/6 for running into the doors but couldnt find any cheap. i havent stripped any of it out to see how many strands it has [
-
also killed my router last weekend, think im getting an early fathers day present

wtf double post, edited second and and first one went away anyway, haven't done much been working, put a wedge where the port exits. contemplating putting one where it enters but I may cut the port down if I was way off on my calcs and the ports to long. it's at 55" now as the opening in the enclosure has the same area 3x13=6x6.5 if it's going to stay that long I'm going to add the wedge. if not I can cut the bottom out of the port making it about 44". got some fiberglass suppies- 2 gal vinyl ester resin, roll of 4"x110yrd chop mat 1.5oz and 5 yards x 50" wide of 1708 biaxial cloth. should be able to bang most of it out this weekend
-
i've got some ideas in my head but yea there will definitely be a grill over the sub and port just havent nailed down exactly what i'm going to do. I want to finish it off very boring, oem style carpet over top of all of it, which means another layer of 1/2" or 3/4" ply to cover everything trimmed out to all edges neat and clean- hide the grills (or grill) in that layer. but be able to pull that cover off, underneath have port/sub exposed with either painted or textured leather/vinyl in case i want to show it off so that top will have a lot more work put into it my s/o drives this car most of the time, i want to be sure she can randomly throw whatever she wants into the back of it and not have to worry about damaging anything, so the grill will be overkill
-
thanks, it's gettin there, baffle is pretty much done. gotta try n sneak out of work sometime next week and get started fiberglassing- which i hate but atleast it's nothing that has to look good
-
bout done with all the wood working, got to recessing the sub had to cut a few rings out- it'll be 1-1/2 down from the top hoping i wont need any more room for the excursion. Waiting on glue to dry and ran out of day light. the edge against the hatch i may cut the top sheet the same arc but as close to the port as i can and have that edge at an angle going up
-
Sub is on the way, fiberglass mat, cloth and vinyl ester resin is getting picked up Tuesday to get that going. I'm going to be recessing the sub, is the outside measurement (12.5") good for carpeting/vinyl covering or should I add a little more to that?
