Easiest way to do this?

What's the easiest way to build a box for under the back seat of a truck, which the floor isnt flat, it has bumps on it, what's the east way to build a box around those?

lay down aluminum foil and make a mold with fiberglass that will be the bottom of the box

Alright, so then how would i connect the fiberglass bottom, to a wood top, because i wanna make the rest out of wood.

glass it to the wooden half sand and carpet

After you finish your bottom just lay it on the rest of your box made of mdf and just fiberglass them together. it should bond the two and be really strong. i wasnt sure how that would work my first time but it worked lol

Thanks, also how would i find the volume of the box with all the wierd shapes?

the wierd shape of your floor is not enough to throw of your dimensions if you have a transmission hump to go over you will need to subtract for that that is all now on the box what you can do is first make the four corners first with out the speaker baffle just get the sides as front and back cut semi close to the shape of the floor does not have to be perfect then with it in place you can lay the fiberglass mat down inside of the box that will then shape to the box and floor. another way would to instead staple an old blanket to the inside of the box and resin the shit out of that and that will also take to the shape of the floor and give you the bottom you need

fill it with something, like packing peanuts, that you can measure.
