voxigenboy Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 so, i was thinking about building a sub wall for my astro van. honestly, ive never done anything with wood(handyman related) at all... i just know how to build/fix cell phones, desktops & laptops. that being the case, what sort of tools/wood would i need? i'd prefer not to bolt it into the van as i'd like to be able to move it if ever necessary... so probably some sort of clamp system to hold it in place. i realize i could just go and have a local shop do this but figure i'd say a big chunk of cash that could go to new subs instead. any help is appreciated. thanks!
