stay away from the t shirt for cloth. Use a good cloth. the shirt will sag under the weight of the resin and you will have lots of filling sanding and repeating. good luck.

Even if you stretch it really tight?and hes just doing pillars so it wont be stretched to far to leave room for sagging right?not arguing just saying.

so today i started on my a pillars. putting a 6.5 in each one or maybe 2 in each one.

should i glass the entire pillar or just the area right around where im putting my rings and speakers?? also when i lay my "stretchy" material can i just resin it or is there something else i need to do??

im using a polyester fleece blanket and am ordering my Duraglass and evercoat at the end of the week to avoid the holiday delay. is a co ax acceptable or should i use components?

thanks guys, ill post some pictures if i can get my damn POS digi cam to work.
