mrd6 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Then after a few more layers of just resin And a final sanding with some finer grit paper this is how it sits right now Its not perfectly smooth but with how long that would take, its just not worth the return. So this is how it will stay. The next step will be to start building the inner sub baffles and then the front loading wall. All that will be done this weekend. Also, picked up some Shok RCAs and 50' of 4 gauge for my sub speaker wire and mids and highs amps I know it doesnt look like there is much space but this is where the mids and highs amps will go...

Justscrap Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Good work bro! Nice rebuild....def. tuned in for this...do work! if you put a DD-1 in your amp terminal and it immediately went up in smoke, i would be concerned. If you shoved your dick in the terminal and it didn't blow up but a month later it blew up, i STILL WOULDN'T be able to blame your dick. It just does not make sense at all.

mrd6 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Thanks! Its getting closer now, at least im starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel I'll admit, half way through sanding that fiberglass in the rain and cold while I was all itchy I was definitely starting to question why i was doing this haha My Build Log: http://www.stevemead...-sundown-power/ Team NorthWestSPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrd6 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 only thing I dont really like about this is all the angles in it. Hopefully that doesnt work against you. Hopefully not, I've been a bit worried about that myself but we shall see. I am building the baffles to be removable so i can keep trying new things and make changes in the shell if need be. My goal was to gross 40 cubes in this shell...i ended up with 59 so I have some space to lose if I need My Build Log: http://www.stevemead...-sundown-power/ Team NorthWestSPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrd6 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Just a single layer of glass, its How many layers of glass did you end up doing? Just 1 layer but it was the thick stuff, 27 oz per whatever (dont remember the actual units). Then a few layers of resin over top of that. Mostly just used it to make sure everything was sealed up and had a uniform surface. That girl is insane!! How'd she survive that without a mask and goggles.And she's good at glassing Haha, we actually were wearing masks most of the time, forgot a couple times though. The fumes dont really get bad until things start to cure and we were working in small batches so we were able to get out of the truck before it was very noticeable. But yeah, I was surprised, she said she wanted to try it so I said be my guest! It was her first time and I think she is already better than me lol My Build Log: http://www.stevemead...-sundown-power/ Team NorthWestSPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
