Surfer J Posted December 18, 2019 Author Report Posted December 18, 2019 Sorry again there is not much of an update today. Okay nothing happened with my box today. I was not in the shop so I was unable to work on by build. Yea I keep noticing little things I could have or should have done. Yes my next box will be much improved in many little ways.

Hey, you can always make changes... even if you have to take 1 side of the box off and sand or router. I'm building my 2nd under seat box, and cramming everything I need into my space is a nightmare, so I'm taking my sweet time and making sure it's all perfect before I glue everything together 18 Sierra 6.2 Z71 : 3 F8L's, DD M2a @.67, 1.95@33 05 TL build log SOLD 04 YukonXL : jvc kw-v51bt , RE 6.5c, 4 jbl gt5 12s, Memphis pr1000.1 5.5 cu.ft. sealed
Surfer J Posted December 20, 2019 Author Report Posted December 20, 2019 Today I was finally able to work on my box. I got the last side glued on. I will be able to finish it up tomorrow. Here it is with glue on all edges. The outside port wall was about 1/16" short. I used liquid nails caulk to fill the gap as I glued it up. Also the last side wasn't as square as I thought is was. I will have to to some pretty heavy sanding on a few of the edges. Luckily we have belt sanders at work. That should help to make much quicker work of what sanding I need to do.

Surfer J Posted December 20, 2019 Author Report Posted December 20, 2019 I will also router the edges of the port opening. Set up the wire connections for the box. Glue on the final baffle piece. "A nod is just as good as a wink to a blind horse." Rolf - Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Surfer J Posted December 21, 2019 Author Report Posted December 21, 2019 Well this morning didn't go as planned. I got in my truck to go to work aaaannnndddddddd....... no good. It was running really rough, like it was missing a cylinder. It turned out I had a spark plug go bad. Easy fix, but costly in time. So no work was done on the box today. Bummed. I hope to complete on Monday. "A nod is just as good as a wink to a blind horse." Rolf - Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Surfer J Posted December 23, 2019 Author Report Posted December 23, 2019 Today I as able to glue the final baffle piece to the top of the box. For some reason I can't up load any pics. I keep getting a message that the photos are too large., even though I am using the same size I used for all the other ones. I will try to post them again later.

Surfer J Posted December 27, 2019 Author Report Posted December 27, 2019 Well the box is finished and installed. It sounds awesome. Much improved output. I just wish I could post the last pics. "A nod is just as good as a wink to a blind horse." Rolf - Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Greasemunkey Posted February 11, 2020 Report Posted February 11, 2020 Awesome build man do you have a video of it playing? I’m interested in a similar build except in a trunk. How do you like it overall musically? What amp are you pushing it with? Tuned at 25 hz are you still picking up high frequencies?
