Sneaky pics of my new enclosure

Here are some pics of the fiberglass box I'm making.

I hope it will sound as good as it looks.

Very impressive. I cant wait to see it complete.

Pretty sweet... if it fails, with a lil reinforcement, it could make a nice computer chair with foot rest for Rick. heh

How do you make those circles? Are those bought pre-made or did you make them yourself?

 

[XplorerKid]

WOW Hartman, should turn out pretty nice, are you keeping your 3 Comp VR's?? or gunan run something new?

Should look killer when it gets done,

whens esitmated tiem of finishign the project?

PEACE


X-Factor, i tihnk you cna buy those pre maid

 

[Hartman]

To build the sub rings I made a circle jig with a ruler. You basically nail the ruler to the wood, drill a hole out on the ruler depending on the size of the circle you want, and just put your pencil in the hole and draw it all the way around. I cut them out freehand with a jigsaw. My Rotozip had a circle jig built in but it was too small for my needs.

Fleeced, almost ready for glasswork.

Hartman, I refuse to tell you how absolutely slick that is until you reply to my fiberglassing thread.

Heheh yeah when I saw it I was like "hey that looks familiar" but if ya think about it, they're totally different, so no biggie. I mean heck, I want every Explorer owner to have killer fglass installs. I'm getting tired of all the Astros and stuff getting all the publicity

Hartman, that's coming along nicely man. You going sealed? VR1000 or some other huge amp going there? Don't tease us man, details!!

 

[Hartman]

I started planning this project way before typhoon posted construction pics of his. I guess only one person is allowed to have a fiberglass box.

The enclosure will be sealed. The amp I'm using is a 04 model Kicker KX850.2
