I said I'd post the pics of my box build. So here they are. Thanks, Mike (Jalat) for helping me determine what size should work.

I didn't put any sealant inside the box until I got home, twenty minutes ago. Built the box at my mom's man-friend's house, since I don't have any tools yet. Took us about 2.5 hours. His cordless drill's batteries don't last long, so too much of the screws were tightened by hand. Turned out fine. I mean, there's not much to it.

I bought myself a heat-gun to soften up the non-hardening weather-stripping I used. Worked well. I forgot to take a picture of it around the inside of the speaker terminal box... I still need to put a bead of the stuff around the "rim" of the woofer - I don't know what that part is called.

How much would it cost me to fibre-glass the exterior of the box myself? I figure a nice small cube would be an easy project for a first-time fibre-glass job. What are all the materials/supplies I'd need to do a half decent job of it? Where can I find them, Canadian Tire? I'd end up priming, painting, and clear coating to finish it up.

Anyway, enjoy the pics.













LOL. I found some glitter-letters in my fiancee's scrap-booking stuff. I think it adds a nice touch to it, don't you think?

 

Looks nice!

If you can get access to a router and a round-over bit, you can give the edges a nicer look (IMO) by rounding them over... knocks off the squareness of the edges. Purely cosmetic though.

Looks like you took your time, pre-drilled & countersunk the screw holes - I like the use of the T-Nuts as well.

I'd look up a fibreglass supplier in the Yellow Pages in your area, might be an idea to look under Plastics or Marine supplies as well.

 

very clean enclosure. good job.

x2 on the router, it was the best power tool i've bought in a long time.

 

hahaha the letters are a nice touch. looks good bro
