[QUOTE="thatkidbob, post: 2373481, member: 566497"] oh yeah... when building the box... have a plan to begin with. use a program like bass box pro, or even WinISD to model your response curve and adjust box size, port size and pot area before building... the time you spend here saves you the time it takes to redo what you've done, and lets you get it right the first time. and also... when painting... you need a smooth surface to work with... you need to sand the wood thoroughly, then apply body filler to low spots, then sand more, until everything's nice and flat. you'll then need to spray a glossy black guide coat to bring imperfections to your attention, address these with fillers, glaze or icing, then prime the box. You'll want to sand your primer as well... don't be afraid to go back and redo things that you notice wrong... this is where most people mess up.
