WTT/FS: Copper bars for a really nice box or monies! Or maybe Subs or Amps
I work at a foundry and can get copper by asking/paying for it. Usually the longest I can get is 7 "-13" as most of stuff comes either HUGE or small. Not too much in between.
I want someone to build me a REALLY nice box. I already have Dbeez making the design and dimensions. Just looking for someone who wants to make a trade. It's cold here and I don't want to do it.
I want it painted with a glossy finish.
**Note all copper bars will not be the same size. We buy copper in bulk at work. It's not machined stock. It is just random cut pieces.**
Here is what I got so far.

because when my buddy machined mine. He said it was $200. If I were the one machining them it would be different. I only didn't get charged for obvious reasons. I am making this thread as a kind feeler. To see if anyone would be interested. Then I am going to ask him if is ok with maching some more.

This and would you take partial payment with a sub for some dual inputs?

Answered it above. And typing is getting annoying. because my keyboards O and P buttons are broken. I have to use an on screen keyboard to punch them in.
What is the sub? My buddy is the one looking for subs/amps

My buddy wants something bigger/power. He wants to replace his 2 10" 9500s.
And my brother has the 500/1. He is looking for an amp that does 1k @ 2 ohms.
Thank you!

200$ to machine a buss bar is crazy.

So I can assume this thread can be closed?

Copper is very soft. So when he tapped the 8 holes. it took a while. because you have to go slowly. and go over it. It took him 4 hours just to do the rear 2. He did it on a manual press.And you have to remember. If he was mass producing these it would be cheap. Because then he would program a machine and have it tap the bars. But he is doing them by hand.

well I thought so.
But would anyone be interested in me trading the copper bars (I can get plates too and blocks) for the box I need built?
