New to the forum

Recommended Posts

Good morning folks,

I'm new to the SSA forums, but not to forums in general. I'm a moderator over on Focaljet.com, stemming from my focus owning days. My name is Evan, I'm 24, I'm from Connecticut. I've been making fiberglass pieces for a while now, a few years at least. Not all the time, but a few here and there. I am a design engineer by day but end up working on most of my buddies' car problems by night. Currently, I know more about the design of enclosures (and still that's not too vast a knowledge) than I do about sound quality, so I am looking to further my knowledge here with you folks.

What led me here is that I have a client that wants me to rebuild his false floor in his Prelude and re-upholster his trunk panels, since he spray-dyed them black from factory grey. I figured I could pick up some nice ideas here and maybe share some of my own work in the future.

Anyways, thanks for having me! :shrug:

Welcome to the forums.

I would love to see your fiberglass projects. :D

Also check out fiberglassforums.com for getting more ideas / help on glassing (as it isn't a big thing here)

But SSA is awesome, plenty of extremely knowledgeable people willing to help out, whether it be building a wall and getting stupid loud, or going for some killer sq.

Unfortunately, I recently lost my external hard drive that had all of my photos and such on it, but I had a few saved on this computer.

First off, here's my old focus, I go by "Majikal" on Focaljet.com, hence the plate.

Here is a focus radio bezel that I put a gauge and turbo timer into:

Here is my FIRST EVER fiberglass enclosure:

Unfortunately I don't have any more photos of my own work at my disposal, but hopefully there will be some to come soon. I plan on putting a semi-stealth box for one 12" polk (from my old enclosure!) I have laying around in my Outback.
