Happy B day noob!!!
-
most fabric/upholstery shops have that in a few colors and can get more its just "trunk liner" hella cheap nice raps though i use spray adhesive and staples to hold the rough spots
Thats is one of the nice things about the way I do it....no glue needed.

Get the BBQ ready.theres other stuff to do besides brakes and paint.
also i cant promise i will feel like going.....im so burnt out on shows i honestly dont care at all - If Paul from Tricked out is runnning the show side again, i will consider it though.
if i dont go, i would much rather have an "after autorama" get together at the pad if anyone still wants to see the hoopty

Who else drunk...
at work working on it!
ALWAYS blazed!

that is so sexy
im guessing youre using non backed stretchable carpet, right? or is it something really special?
do you start stapling at the corners? center? some random spot? start on a short or long side?
Yep..a standard non back carpet is what ya need..yes I start a couple staples on the corners and kind work things around a bit..sometimes you do end up pulling a few staples but only a few..as for the lenth..whatever you can fit..on the bigger boxes I will run half inchers.
-
Yep thats some nice work there little buddy.. Now just learn your camera/computer!!
-
As I am not going through anything as drastic as this...all I can say is stay as positive as you can..being good in the head does wonders for the body!!Best of luck to you and your family.

great tutorial i tried wrapping my box 2x bigger than that one it didnt turn out bad but could have been better, great tutorial 2 thumbs up, n did u say u made a seperate beauty panel to go over the back of the box?
Most of the time you dont do a panel for the bottom..you just wrap a the carpet to the bottom of the box!!

Got my tickets in the mail yesterday...Thanks Noob.

Some place in here theres some pics of a few boxes I have wrapped..some BIG ones..yes the back panel where the wire exit is added on with a brad nailler...no screws to be seen!
-
After I get it wrapped I staple the hole s for the speakers..
now with most carpet jobs like this one the uncoverd area would be on the bottom....well with this one the owner will be moving things around alot so I put on a cover panel for the bottom..where I think he will put his amps...
hope this makes it a little easier to do for you!!

Heres a little look at how I wrap a box..for some of you its old news..
THe first thing I do is round over the edges of the box..no sharp stuff,then I will some time paint the edges the color of the carpet so if there is any spots that get pulled alittle to much they wont show in the carpet.
The first thing I do is center the box on a piece of carpet thats big enough to over lap on all sides..
as you can see this is all the material that you have to move around..
you will end up pulling up on this fairly hard to get a good stretch..
-
im the opposite, i was actually pleasantly surprised every time i heard a properly built IB setup....they dont sound bad at all if done right.
Damn right they can sound good...shit mang thats how a lot of bangen systems were
done back in the day...cutties to caddies..12's and 15's!!
-
Very nice...thanks to all involved.well that is due to this chat being integrated fully with the forum.
-
Some more people in blue...good shit
-
See I wanna do that but the only local audio shop barely does business....and they wont hire anyone.
Change your angle.just offer to do a little shop clean up and be a second set of hands to some of the installers..just a few hours each week for free(kind of an intern thing)..that way if you really need the money,you can get a paying job as well..if you want into the trade,you have to be willing to start off low.

Started installing when in high school!!FUCK fast food!!
-
A little bit of sanity for next year...this year was fucking crazy!!!
-
Hell I'm local..bring it by my shop!!! LOVE to see it.

Welcome aboard...have fun

what the hell is carls?
i did buy it, 7.99, after dl'n it 1st to make sure it was worth it.... for "fuck sake"
i doubt e-40 was going for this but, my little 7month old girl loves to shake and dance to "sliding down the pole," its frickin hillarious to watch, anytime she hears the girls voice she turns her head and smiles wide
Carls Jr...I think
-
The only thing I dont like is how close the face of the sub is to the box...would like to see a bit more space between them..but with lower power should sound good
-
Man I use 1\4 inch mdf all the time...great stuff to work with...just use your 1\4 round over and raise it a bit...then a little sand paper if ya want!
