used 10-24 t-nuts with hardened hex screws

Posted Image

rubber washer - steel washer - amp mount tap - rubber washer - steel washer - hex screw

seems really solid when i shake it upside down

Posted Image

so why did i use so much hardware...?

1/8" rise off of the surface of the wood so air can be sucked up under the amp thru the holes made in the factory

hopefully this plus a few fans will keep the amp warm at best

Posted Image

my ghetto decal to give an idea somewhat of what it will look like except a bigger decal and black enamel instead of a sharpie will be used

Posted Image

im liking it so far, plus i used minwax polyshade with polyurethane mixed in so no finishing coat... shweet

ill prolly start my friends box tomorrow night, then mine next monday, moving along at a crawl but im getting shit done

comments welcome as always :clapping:
