I'm almost done... Here's the box after 3 hours of sanding and a test fitting sub

 

Keep up the good work ... I should be done with mine by Sunday night this week

 

Well... after another hour of snading, I found a few weak spots So I had to put another layer of cloth on the box. Looks like my 4 hours of sanding was kinda worthless If everything goes right, I should be able to hear it play in a few days

 

...and that's why we glass the inside.

 

I did consider you idea of glassing the inside, but it seemed like way too much trouble because of the shape of the box. Sanding the box in the first place had some positive impact though Because the box was already bump free, the last layer of cloth was a charm to put on. And it took me only 1 hour to sand the whole thing again .

Now the only things left are bondo and paint. Which can of bondo should I be using. Cause I've seen 2 or 3 that might do the job, but I ain't too sure which one is the right one

 

But you don't have to sand! You can bondo almost instantly (only weird spots you need to sand)


Anything that's easy to sand...I usually use a harder type bondo (have no numbers for ya, man, sorry) for the bottom layer and then imperfections after that get taken out by the body man that does the rest

If you're carpeting, though, stop...no need to bondo if you're carpeting!

 

Exactly why I am carpeting mine

 

Ok, I'm no longer painting the box, I'll be carpeting. But I'm wondering how the hell I'm gonna carpet that box. Look at the shape. Will I have to cut a whole bunch of pieces and stick them on or what?

Anyone with carpet experience

 

gotta get a long peice of carpet and drape it over it. Then glue it down. Trim the hole for the sub and trim the edges. Easier said than done though

 

Heard a heat gun comes in handy for shaping the carpet around the enclusure.

 

On carpet? Nope, you'll melt the carpet!

 

Then give me an idea... cause I haev no clue

 

Large roll of carpet and 3M spray adhesive

 

exactly.

Don't buy trunk liner. Buy automotive carpet (there's a big diff).

Auto Carpet will stretch a bit so it will have less creases...

 

Alright, will try that
