yes sir.

you are ate up..... lol thanks

keep in mind that is with alot of side deals and trading around.....

just dropped in and only read last post.... why are you choosing not to run under the car...... ? just curious.....

lol, you are crazy.....look forward to sharing some stories.... chop not to jack my own thread, but wanted to mention that we threw the ol' pig skin around in the bowl before there was even a roof built.....

Alex William is 6 weeks old........... he is our Grandbaby..... our baby will be turning 11 yrs. old Nov. 5th. more pics tomorrow....... chop

I have high hopes that the port firing to the side will enable the enclosure to use the side wall of the truck to load off of..... perhaps giving me just a little bit of an edge over firing it up into that floppy head liner. if you look through the other fabrication thread on this install... you will see that i was told not to fire into the port mouth ........ so , i moved the sub over the port wall, making it snake around to the port... i did like a dozen different measurements.... then i just decided the hole goes..........................................here. lol so we will see, i do not compete so no guidlines to follow or concerns of how i pressure a mic at a certain location..... yet anyway! the stadium was awesome... 25 months out of 34 build time i was there.... got some great stories to tell of it... pm me if you want more pics and stories , i will be glad to share..... want a suvenior? hmmmmmm oh and the ring was the actual Super Bowl ring.... felt like a Q- ball...... Manning was to cool for letting me wear it for a sec.... notice the shirt i had on, lol.... they thought it was great though... chop

time to chill with little man now......

ol' chop doing work..... very rare photos!!!!lol

well, we got some more done today...... the day ended sorta in a bad frame of mind for me though...ftl i ran into quite a few small problems that a little extra cash would of fixed....in which we have none! so after several hours of compromise and innovation we progressed a little further... i have temporarily backed out of some of my plans.... i will tear it out later and do some upgrading when the cash gats right, i have gained quite the respect for the builds that are done right on here.... it takes skill, attention to detail, tools , supplies, and time.... and alot of it. the advice i want to throw out there for today has aalready been said before.... you get what you pay for! don't buy cheap tools... if it is a big bargin, it is a big rip off!!! enough of the complaining... I am happy with it and i promise there are few out there done any cheaper..... I have not crossed the $300 dollar mark yet!!! behind the seats are done.... box is done for now.... amp rack needs to be built and .............. hell it will be sorta done!

O M G ....... i am in shock... did not even know .... the smilies are al back....... i will be ruined for weeks to come!!! thanks denim !!!!

*yeabuddy*'s first official day of being an adult, what does she do? goes to BINGO with mom!! lol, I love the women of this family! it's a family tradition.....lol best gift on her list so far imo......... grandma gave her a coupon for a free Big Bufford from Rally's!!!!! how the hell can I compete with that!!!??? Grandma's love = FTW!!! chop not sure she has seen this thread yet....

hey crappy cell pics make THE world go around, let's get em up here, lol.

car audio work in the living room = FTW !!! hey do you have a sec to post a pic of the crimper / bolt combo in action? chop

look up big kidz on you tube..... that is one install i remembered....

hey thanks fellas..... tomorrow we will get this box built..... if so that will give me thursday to finish a little odds and ends , but gotta go get some ink done also.... then friday get it installed, *yeabuddy* ( mty oldest daughter) is having a birthday party after the Halloween stuff saturday ....... so no work for that day!!!! Sunday is church and family stuff.... so perhaps by monday some finished install pics and if i make myself go get the camera cord, perhaps some videos!!! ^^^^^^^^^^^^ none of this is gauranteed, lol...... wood for new floor and panels = 3/4" plywood, 4' X 8' wood for enclosure = 3/4" MDF, 4' X 7' & 4' X 2' expanding foam used on all empty cells and voids covered entire rear wall with peel and seal, for sound deadening as well as some of floor bought a predrill and countersink combo set. grabbed up some locktite, quick grab, heavy duty, construction adhesive using 1 5/8" coarse threaded drywall screws going to use the clear silicoln caulk we already have for all the joints stay posted...... chop

i would have to look up the specs of both.... as well as the impressions giving and the applicationds in which both subs show up alot in.... use youtube or roe as a tool to see this... is more powere a option soon? you can get a decent low response from quite a few subs in that range, and be rather loud, with the properly tuned enclosure..... seeing that you can throw your own together = ftw i believe the mmats sub is more aggressive with the right amp / box combo. chop
