[QUOTE="LoneRanger, post: 376480, member: 540903"] 2 best methods: 1. wrap it like a present. the carpet should be cut into a cross shape with 4 sections to cover the wide part and 2 sections (1 on each side) to cover the sides of the box. This will produce the least amount of seams, and you can center them toward the rear of the enclosure so they won't be noticed. 2. Cut each side individually. This takes less time than #1, and it's easier. My suggestion is to cut out pieces of carpet that are slightly too large for each side, glue them down then trim off the excess with a carpet knife or razor blade. There are a lot more seams this way, but it's quick, easy and effective....especially if you have a lot of scraps laying around. [/QUOTE]
