[QUOTE="audioarsonal, post: 5714748, member: 576393"] I have never had any problems with Bondo brand Resin.I hae recoated when it was still tacky to hours later with no sanding between. That said a project like this wouldn't be to expensive but can be time consuming with all the prep and finishing required to get it looking nice.I would make th base out of MDF if the area is flat.But if its going in a well or non conforming area then glass will work.You will need at least 6-8 layers of mat for a strong durable box.Cut a speaker ring out of MDF the size of the woofer and use dowels to set it to the height and direction you want the woofer facing.Stretch a layer of fleece over the skeleton and secure it to the base.Soak it with resin and continue to build layers of FG mat till you get about a 1/2" thickness. Finish it however you want. [/QUOTE]
