Nicely done! I'll be building a couple of boxes for my car this coming week, and we can compare notes. Any reason for the ply over MDF?

Looks better and is lighter, also can stain it, paint it, finish it. If I was building a box for my trunk I would use mdf because of price.

Kinda figured as much. That box would look hella bitchin if you stained it BTW.

[IamDeMan]

That sub would perfrom real good if you threw it in that wood burner where it belongs :fyi:

[Spider Monkey]

That is a silly spot to put a subwoffer.

[J31Bro]

:no:

[maddskillzz]

[tapout]

[hoss]

How do your parents like it?

[J31Bro]

Im not sure if they can hear it from 100 miles away.

Fuck off, its fine.

[IamDeMan]

Not to mention the ghey ass top mounting of the sub. Poorly planned and executed.

[Hairyballzonya]

Fuck off, its fine.

Are your parents out of town or something? When are they coming back home? Hopefully you put all dads tools back.

also stronger

[J31Bro]

Fuck off, its fine.

No.. no, it's really not. :fyi: :icon14:

[bigtoyota479]

also stronger

Funny how some glue and sawdust can be stronger than plywood huh?

God, I just want to punch you right in the suckhole.

you may end up with a burning cross in your yard if that happens

1/2 MDF inch works i built the box in my car out of 1/2 MDF inch with 1x1s in all the corners. It is a separate chamber box for 2 12s, and it dose not flex at all. I just put fiberglass resin inside and out. IMO it just as strong as a box built out of 3/4 MDF. That port is a no go it should be at least a 4 or a 6 inch port for that sub you choking that sub.

No it isn't just as good and the resin alone does absolutely nothing for strength.

shit be britle yo, mat is what gives it the strenght(sp?)

[Porch Monkey]

hard sturdy surface

I have one of those in my pants. Don't worry, I'll show you guys what a real box looks like here in a few days.

dick in a box?

Hey fuckhead it is a 4 inch port, why dont you read a book and educate yourself before you talk.

[J31Bro]

Not really. Glue + sawdust = tightly bonded.. Plywood is mediocre bonded together.. and depending on how many ply it is.. can be stronger or shittier.

God, I just want to punch you right in the suckhole.

You has suck hole.

you may end up with a burning cross in your yard if that happens

Without a doubt, colored or not.

THIS. Resin is used for resonant purposes in teh car audios world.

and mai door pods. <3

Fleece, whatever you use under the resin.

:azn:

:laugh:

:eyebrow: Fleece adds little to no strength either. Don't believe me, stretch out a piece of fleece and throw a couple coats of resin on it, wait for it to cure. Then take your test piece and snap it like a saltine cracker. Fleece, tshirt material, grill cloth, spandex, any of the thin molding materials are simply used to get your general shape. Then mat and or cloth is applied to the fleeced structure to give it strength.

glue + sawdust + AN ASS TON OF PRESSURE = tightly bonded. Plywood is actually bonded under the same presses most of the time. Number of plys isn't as important as the bias of said ply's, the quality of the plys, and the quality of the adhesive used. There is crappy plywood, and very good plywood. There is also crappy mdf and good mdf. :)

Fucking werd.

I would never use 1/2" of either material though for a sub enclosure.

Well me and Ramos would so suck it.

Show me where he said this please. Speak for yourself only.

[ramos]

I'm not wasting my time making any enclosure out of half inch mdf. Half inch of fiberglass maybe, but not half inch mdf. It makes good framework for stuff, but it's too thin for an enclosure unless you brace the living pee pee out of it, and then you could have just saved yourself time and effort by just using 3/4" in the first place :)

He used plywood though ;)

[ramos]

Half inch ply? Oh that's even better. The box will breathe instead of just shattering :D Half inch ply has very minimal lateral strength characteristics. It's about as dense as marshmallows, yet marshmallows would probably make a better enclosure :)

[Captain Ahab]

And then if you start clipping you can have melted marshmellows! w00t!

[ramos]

mmmmhhhmmmmmmm roasted marshmallows :)

[97gp]

Thats what I thought, do something.

[Porch Monkey]

well it should keep you warm in those Cleveland winters

[IamDeMan]

That's what I'm sayin. That enclosure should burn nice and hot in that wood burner.

1/2" would suffice for a 6-8" low power computer subwoofer.

buuuut if you're building customs enclosures you'd know to get nicer shit than that. So 1/2" is a no no. :thumbsup:
