How Do You Calculate Volume For Fiberglass Enclosures?

[sungwei 10+ year member]

Actualy couldn't you just use a beaker or any liquid measuring device/container? You don't really need to build the cube right? Just as long as you can measure the volume of liquid going in and out of the enclosure. You would just have to convert fluid ounces to cubic feet.

Please correct me if I'm wrong here.

Your 100% correct....Its just an easy way to do it, its surely not the only way to do it. It probally took 15 minutes to build and label it while I waited for the mold to dry.

I would assume using liter bottles would be a easy conversion to cubic feet.

If I remember correctly its 28.3 liters per cubic foot

Look, you might even be correct, BUT do you think you could fit 28 liter bottles in a cubic foot????
