It's probably already halfway paid for it'self if you consider the local shop charges $10 a run on the AC.
In other words

lol...

box is looking pretty good. any braceing?

thoughts on a amp rack?

Bracing will be 2x4's One two each side. Basically acting like battons. There will be side to side and top to bottom braces but front to back is out of the question. As you can see the port terminates right where there is actually room on the baffle. So the baffle is doubled and will be screwed to the ends of both top and bottom battons. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Amps will be mounted somewhere on the enclosure. We will see how everything sizes up and looks once the box is in the trunk and go from there. Wire gets here monday I think.

Just a tip, but you can avoid the indentions in the roundover by filling in the screw holes with filler prior to routering.

And the comment about using screws, "the poor man clamp". Why would you bother removing the screws once you have already put them in? Why not just leave them in? Seems like a waste of time.

I didn't know "Toothless Joe" from the trailer park made such nice boxes...

Looks good.. The sub does look a bit close to the edge though, scrap it and start again? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Yeah I thought of that after I ran it over. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

As far as removeing the screws? Well it saves me time not having to countersink (though I have to spend time removeing them) and carbine at 15,000 RPM meeting steel = $20 bit down the drain. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

It's hard fitting two 15" subs on a 36.5" wide baffle with a 5" wide port using 3/4" wood. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

The rear seats have a fold down in the middle? Would be cool if you could find a way to have the port fill in the space with that part folded down.
