CarAudioFab Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 I know where I get proper wood.... sorry couldn't resist such a great opportunity I like MDF, but not the stuff Home Depot carries, thats where MDF gets a bad rep. Hit up a local lumber yard and ask for Plum Creek Super Refined MDF. IT's so awesome I could cry. -Mark Host of "CarAudioFabrication" - YouTube Car Audio Tutorial Channel Check out my forum section here on SMD for my builds and tutorial videos!

gckless Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 The birch at Lowe's is fine to use. I find it's better than Home Depot. You don't really need 11/13-ply baltic birch, just might need a $2 dowel or two. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now. It's like witchcraft... it automatically explains just about everything people don't understand.

Soccerballzs Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 Birch, Oak, Maple any of these plywoods are not better then one of the others. It is what the inner plys are made from just because it says birch you are getting a poplar core plywood with voids. Look for a Cabinet supply house or a local Weyehauser Distributer they will have MDF in thickness from .75 to 1.5 and plywood with 11 to 13 ply. look for a plywood manufactured in Poland or Russia or Sweden they use alot of plys. Or you can use solid hardwood and make a nice box. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/garage/vehicle/2438-jeep-commander/I Pioneer P99RSAmpere 38002-Ampere 125/44-6.5 inch Hertz HSK XL Mids4-8 inch JL Audio ZR Midwoofer 2-5.25 Satori Mids2-Morel Tweeters, 2 Hertz Milles 3 inch on A pillars2-Hertz Silk tweeters DC Audio Level 5/12 Skyhigh Wire Mechman 320 XS Power D3100MO Funniest Thread of the Year 2013: http://www.stevemead...dy-being-a-pos/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
