Lets see you build a box.

building a box is not hard to do, especially if you have woodworking background like i do. i no longer build rectangular boxes but rather concentrate on fiberglass, and even that i really don't get into anymore.

i realize you build boxes and sell them on this forum but this was in no way directed at you nor a reflection on you or any box builder. to be totally honest the thought of you never entered my mind. if you must know it was directed at a potential seller (with less than a 5 post count) who was selling a 'custom' sealed sub box that was anything but custom.

since you asked me so nicely, here are the build logs of 2 of the boxes i have built.

this one was to the point of finish sanding when the thieving bastards who broke into my garage destroyed it while stealing all of my tools.

you can see the finished results, complete with leather wrap, on the bottom of page 1 and the build log on page 2.

is that enough or should i show you pictures of the plain jane boring rectangle boxes that i have built in the past as well? trust me, they are anything but custom.

Well, most of the time a "custom box builder" refers to people who build a box around a subwoofer. There are pre-fabricated boxes with, what seems to be arbitrary numbers, and tuned to an arbitrary number.

But all the box builders on this website build as per the subwoofer... and IMO That's custom built.

There is more to a "custom" box, then just its shape //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Designing and building boxes is fun and time consuming. I've only built two boxes, one for me and another for a friend and I liked working on both of them. I made my friend throw out a pre-fab when we mounted his type r in my box.

/sigh

a pre-fab box from bb or cc or any other store, chain or not, is not a custom box. period. i don't care if it is rectangular, square, circular or in the shape of an ice cream cone. i never mentioned box builders, designers or anyone who sells custom made boxes on this or any other site.

You said rectangle is not custom. I beg to differ.
