My part is done. He wanted to do the finishing touches himself. I believe he was going with white port and bed liner the rest.

Here is a finished picture of this box. He did the finish on it, I have yet to see it in person this is a picture he sent me. I am soon going to be doing the recones for this kid too. Maybe i can get a demo after that.

There was some bondo in some places to cover up the kreg screw holes, but you are talking about the fiberglass resin.

I see you used a pocket hole to assemble this enclosure. I have been thinking of using this method.  From what I have read it is a great method to use in cabinets just not alot of information with our type of application.

 

Have you been doing that for a while?

 

Have you had good success?

 

Any downfalls to using this method?

 

Would you recommend it to others?

This is the first enclosure I have used this method, but not the first project as I have used it for several. To me it seems to be just as strong if not stronger than the traditional fastening method, or just glue itself. This specific enclosure has yet to be tested yet, but I think it will be substantial. If you build a lot of boxes or do a lot of woodworking I would suggest it, but it is a bit more work for the end user. Well I guess that depends on how you look at it. Overall it is a great tool and has a lot of good circumstances to where it will be more beneficial than any other fastening method. I'm not sure what brands are out there for this, but KREG has everything you need. They sell a whole kit with instructions which help a lot.
