[QUOTE="SkizeR, post: 8598999, member: 633600"] All wires in this build were labeled for quick and easy identification. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/K88V0O3.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/ZXlfvs2.jpg[/IMG] Heres the start of the sub enclosure/amp rack. Once i built up the mold, i tried something new. I laid down some nylon rope and soaked it with resin. It worked very well for stiffening up the enclosure in the flat spots. In the end the enclosure came to about 1.4 cubic feet plus stuffing. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/hVbCWjX.jpg[/IMG] I copied a template that i made out of quarter inch MDF, and made two copies also out of quarter inch MDF, and one copy out of quarter inch acrylic. I then did a 45 degree chamfer with my new bit from 12vtools. I realized a big 45 chamfer bit is definitely a must have in any fabricators arsenal. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/mKn4kP1.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/uYyB4ae.jpg[/IMG] I then cut the top layer to a rectangle with some curves along the bottom. Then the cut out for the subs, which also got a chamfered edge. The bottom of this panel also got rabbeted edges to fit the vinyl [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/F9Tcket.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/BmQvHfP.jpg[/IMG] The bottom pieces that are a copy of, and placed under the acrylic layers were painted, then wrapped in black grill cloth.
