Primed the flushed rings, gotta sand them a lot more before I can paint them black...

That's it for today, tomorrow I'll put the ports in and carpet the box. Then I'll start wiring.

I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

Got enough work done today to hear it. Still gotta find a better ground and hide remote and signal wires. This setup sounds amazing! And by that, I don't mean it's loud. Because it isn't really. But that's just how it seems to me because I'm used to a lot more bass. But this box is super precise, nice and punchy, and adds a perfect amount of lows to the stock system. My friend's happy, so I'm happy.
