95legwagon Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) i think if someone designed a box made completely out of 2x4s it would look sick. like 2x4 make up all sides and port (if your using slot port) 2x4s glued together and held together by threaded pipe. would def. be thick enough...... any thoughts? i just thought of that this a.m. while smoking my "wake up" bogie. thinkn bout doin this just for fun....talk about unique though. maybe ill sketch something on paint to give a general idea..... nothing fancy just a scribble or two pros? cons? IN blue says: threaded pipe in red says: glued joints also would require more 2x4s just didnt feel like being all technical lol Edited January 1, 2012 by 95legwagon Quote i think there real i was looking through that guys stuff he sells and it looks like he finds stuff at auctions and just sells it Yea, it looks like someone got the mids about a month ago....shit.

n8ball2013 Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 you could if you really wanted to. Id think it would be susceptible to leaking. so youd have to do some serious glue jobbing or resin and matting the entire thing anyways.

99fullsizechevy Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Do it fiberglass the inside of the whole thing to make sure there aren't any leaks and post up the pics!! I for one think it would be quite different from anything I've seen.. Quote Laying frame soon.. System has to wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPL Blazer Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 I'm sure it could be done, but to do it so it doesn't leak you'd spend at least double the money to get it done right. Between the fiberglass, the sealer, threaded rod and nuts you'd be spending a lot more money than you would if you just used mdf.

HatersGonnaHate Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 ^^^^ That. You'd have to fiberglass the unholy hell out of the seams, corners, and joints. But after that, it should be fine. It would look sick with a stained finish on it. Another thing to look out for is knots in the wood.... One good bass drop would blow those fuckers out.

Namosh Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Should work if you seal the inside completely. Would be unique for sure. Also, when I saw you pic I thought it was a diagram of a MacGuyver style time bomb. Quote My Ram Quad Cab Blow-through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
