[QUOTE="JeeperVol, post: 8677237, member: 677088"] Thanks...I drilled pilot holes and used screws every 4" and let the glue cure overnight upright on flat ground with a 45 lb flat weight on it. This morning, I touched up a couple tiny voids with titebond and it feels rock solid. Once that dries, I'll caulk the inner joints. I bought the speaker gasket tape linked below to seal the sub and wire terminal. I have a 2" diameter hole cut for the round wire terminal...do I need to use the gasket tape and caulk to seal the wire terminal and sub? When you screw your wire terminal and sub to the enclosure, do you simply drill pilot holes and put a screw directly in the wood or do you use a threaded insert?

How much polyfil would you add? Thanks again [/QUOTE]
