BAGGEDBIRDS.com Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 I thunderbird is bagged and the old manual valves were leaking so I picked up some MIC valves and needed to redo the console with a little more thought to the layout. I still have some more work to do. here it is so far. I did it orginally about 7 years ago and thought everything had to be glassed together so its alittle of a hack on the back side 1st SMD "System of the Month" Feb. 2007 Zapco Studio 500 (2) Zapco Studio 300X Zapco Studio 204 (2) (2) FI 12ssd's w/ copper coils DLS Iridium Tweeters DLS UR2.5 MidRange FI.

LSN2meBoom916 Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Very nice. That Evercoat FiberTech tube...? Self drying/pre mixed? or do you mix it w/ a hardener? And the blueish overlay/finishing coat? A Rage variant? I have NEVER had any issues w/ structural or finishing glass supllies I use but I have yet to do an all out "perfect finish required" painted glass setup. So just doin my HW. Looks very good BTW.

BAGGEDBIRDS.com Posted February 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 the fibertech needs a hardner, same hardner as regular filler. The fibertech is made to bond to plastics better, so i use it. the filler is Evercoat Metal Glaze, very simale to Glaze Coat exceot it wil work on metal inaddition to everything the glaze coat will work on. So i get it. The nice thing about these are , at least in the summer, they are very thin and almost self level. they are the same color but one came with an orange hardner and one with a blue 1st SMD "System of the Month" Feb. 2007 Zapco Studio 500 (2) Zapco Studio 300X Zapco Studio 204 (2) (2) FI 12ssd's w/ copper coils DLS Iridium Tweeters DLS UR2.5 MidRange FI.

LSN2meBoom916 Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Thank you sir. Exactly what I was lookin for. Do you order em online or pick em up locally? If it's local what branch you know carries em cuz I haven't scoured Home depot but I have checked most hardware stores and the auto parts shop I work at and we're pretty much limited to Bondo brand stuff.

LSN2meBoom916 Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Awsome thnx for the links. I'mma have to start rounding up quite a bit of building supplies when summer gets closer as I gotta put something "new and exciting" in my ride and FINALLY get my ass over that 150db hump. The only things I'm sure of are: Painted fiberglass enclosure w/ neon-backlit plexi (slight change), Better Glow effect after neons are off, Motorized amp rack, and it's gonna be much bigger/louder (double the amps from 2 to 4 and some electrical work) I have some plans for the LOUDER though. :shiftyph34r: COOGLE SAID:"bro thats how we got where we are... buy making messes ...... i still learn all the time you just gota be willing to ruck up some shit" "In order to attain the impossible, one must attempt the absurd." ~ Miguel de Unamuno"One machine can do the work of fifty ordinary men, but no machine can do the work of one extraordinary man" -Elbert Hubbard"A proud man can learn humility...but he will be proud of that too" ~I forget who.I'm far from perfect and I know it better than anyone, but I hope to be good at what I do, when I do it...Installs I've done:My Integra: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=3161The Lexus : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=1535Law's Maxima: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...ic=5568&hl=Jeff's 2500HD: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...ic=5382&hl=Acura RSX-S: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=3142Z-32 300zx: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=34602004 Civic 4dr: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=8190Trunk/Corner Box: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...c=16036&hl=1969 Chevy C-10: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...c=20319&hl=Seat-Back AMP-RACK How-to: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...ic=9428&hl=Bunch of subs still for salehttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...l=lsn2meboom916"It's game night...we're playin......sex."~Quagmire"When disneyland started it was powered completely by orphan children running on treadmills to generate e-lectrissty…and today, them children are New York Yankees". ~Dale Gribble"Fill it with ice...then pour it up to the top of the ice...& Shut da Fu** up!" ~Urs truly.
