[QUOTE="Savant, post: 118846, member: 546108"] Hey Mark_ab, You glassed that enclosure? Couple of questions, if you don't mind.. 1) How do you go about figureing out the volume? It looks like you might be able to fill it with water since the hole is at the highest point and it looks like it all slopes up (preventing bubbles, etc).. The area I'm looking at glassing over will have a lot of irregular shapes, some internal and I'm not sure how to accurately measure the volume.. 2) How did you go about getting the proper shape? Did you 'wall' off in the trunk and pour some kind of base to get the shape (or is it just a pretty close fit and not quite as formed as it looks like it might be in the pic)? 3) What did you use for the sub mounting material? is that just MDF glassed in? I'm asking because I'll be building some enclosures for my Blazer soon and don't know if I'm gonna run MDF or glass something out (I have a lot of irregular curves where I'm wanting to put the box so I'm thinking of form-fitting glass to best maximize space usage).. I just don't know how to go about getting the outside shapes or determining volumes.. Any info you have would be great [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] Thanks! Oh, looks great BTW.. Good job!
