get an mt motor and a 10 inch 12 spoke basket then send it to tc sounds to put some soft parts in it

I really need to find the parts though. I'd like to do the recone myself too...

I'd also like to keep the size to an 8" or so.

Just buy a Rl-i 8.

The custom made sub will probably sound like poo.

I asked TC if they would make me a tc9 8 and it just wasnt logical.

Shure it would look beefy but the sound it makes....

They dont make 12 spoke baskets in 8" form.

Hm... I may have to step up to a 10" basket and use a really big magnet...

^So you have the Bass Solutions 8" you wanna sell? I'm just looking for parts now so I can build a frankenstein 8" or 10".

why are you going to get HIM a woofer for a wedding present? shouldnt it be for the couple?

LOL... If you knew these two you would totally understand.

I'm going to try and get a picture of them printed onto the dustcap. I have had some success with getting a friend of mine to screenprint things onto dustcaps, so I figured that this would be one of those things that I could do for him.

Any help locating parts for the build would be awesome!
