looks pretty **** good for a 1st time

[SPY]

OK, so it's been slow going on this box. I've only been able to squeeze in a few min here and there but it's all starting to pay off.

looking good for sure, specially for a first time. I'm liking the box hanging from the ceiling for painting too, very nice setup. should look good when it is finished. Not sure if I like the white but I'll wait to see the final product.

[SPY]

Thanks :D

Only the port and design will be white, the rest is just primer...

[tez4life]

Nice work SPY, youve built some solid enclosures lately, shows some quality work skills there.

Looking foward to how this one turns out as well :thumbsup:

[SPY]

Thanks :cool:

Should be done soon...

[bigbangtheory]

[SPY]

It's finally done!!!

Just need to mount the sub and get it in the car :p:

looks sexay. what was the spacing between cuts on your kerf?

[SPY]

I think it was like 1/4".

I'm pretty happy with the outcome for my 1st attempt.

[da box king]

What kind of black paint is that....**** **** box there

[SPY]

Rustolium Flekstone

do you like it, and is it easy to use? I was thinkin of using a textured paint for my next box....looks nice man

[rollerdj]

Rustolium Flekstone

good stuff. i used it on my HT build a few days ago.

[SPY]

It looks good, we'll see how it holds up. Very easy to use and hides the screw holes and joints very well.


I found a spray on bedliner (in a can) that I think I'm going to try for my next build.

[JBLCAMRY]

nice

[bigbangtheory]

Awesome job Spy.

Man, I really like how that came out, really complements the sub and its logo. Nice work SPY!
