    Fiberglass Trunk Project

    I started the process yesterday of fiberglassing new trunk panels that will tidy up my new install and help hide wires and organize distro blocks, crossovers, etc.

    Fiberglass Trunk Project

    This is the nearly finished result. All I've got to do now is cut off the part that's not covered in fleece, resin up the fleece, wait for it to dry, cut the holes for the distribution block mounts, figure out a way to mount the plexi covers then cover it in foam rubber and black vinyl.....oh chit....this might take a while

    Here's the other side. It's been 'glassed too, but i'm not sure exactly how to finish it yet. I'm sure it will come to me

    This one shows the new molding where the distrobution blocks will be displayed. I'm not sure exactly how i'm going to finish it, but this looks like a good start.

    Your Professional Opinion

    wow....making me pull out the big guns on this one Porting a wedge shaped box can be a pain in the ass, but i think you pretty much hit the nail on the head when i did the math, i came up with 10.5" port but since the port is slanted it won't be exactly 11" long anyway. PS: very nice drawing. i might commission you to draw me some templates some time

    Need Plans....

    back in my day we had to walk three miles barefoot in the snow with our little brother clinging to our back as our only means of staying warm...... i have no idea what that has to do with box plans, but i really needed to get it out. that looks complicated as hell man, but you have most of it done already. just figure up the volume and plug the numbers into the calculator at BCAE1.com otherwise paypal me $15 to [email protected] and i'll have em for ya by tommorrow morning.

    G,check my dimensions

    let's assume your width is 36". If the wood is .75" thick, the inner width would be 34.5 (36-1.5) because the sides of the box would each subtract .75". If the height is 16 for example, you'd again subtract 1.5 for the top and bottom baffles, and get 14.5. Lets also assume the depth is 12" which would yeild 10.5" of inner depth. Now we multiply these numbers (34.5*14.5*10.5=5252) then divide by 1728 (the number of cubic inches in a cubic foot) to yeild 3.04 cubic feet..... but if you don't like math, you can always use the calculator dave suggested

    Do you think that this 1.5 sealed can hold a Magnum well powered at 1100w ? Max yeah, it would work great with a magnum 12". If you're interested in buying, shoot me an email at [email protected]

    Hey Gnome.. quick mdf question for you

    A cabinet-grade table saw is your best bet, however most people don't have access to one. If nothing else, use a circular saw and a straight edge. They make a blade specifically for MDF that has a bunch of tiny teeth. As far as cutting the sheet in half, you gotta do what you gotta do

    hosting SPL comps

    1. calculate cone area rather than number of subs (it takes 3 8's to make a 15!) or have some sort of trade off chart. 2. specify whether number of amplifiers counts non-subwoofer amps, etc. 3. specify that boxes have to be in a certain position (ie, behind the back seats for cars, behind the door jamb for trucks) 4. will you offer clinics? 5. how will disputed scores and such be handled?
