More box progress, getting hole cut and finishing up port

I used a lid from a jar that was just the right size to run the router around. Heres a practice peice.

So I am really close to being done. Today made a lot of progress. Got amp in, fabric for box picked out.

Fabric im using

painted the port, its sparkly black

Decided to wrap this part first, it will be easier in the end. i taped off the hole so glue wouldnt get on it

Used this gas hose as stilts for the amp so the wires could be run underneath

Using these square head screws so you cant get it out as easily. Some insurance haha

This is always a good feeling, when your amp turns on! :clapping:

Screwing down the port/baffle. I went crazy with the screws on the baffle since its not laying on top.

Sealing up the inside

Decided to run two wires off the terminal cup, one for each voice coil.

wow that box turned out great, the snake skin leather is a bit different but to each his own right? I would've loved to see the snake leather part covered with carbon fiber vinyl, you sir have very good box building skills, how does it sound?
