Where do I get wooden blocks

[Based]

I need two 7 1/2" tall 5 1/4" wide wooden blocks and 2 1/2" inch tall 5 1/4" wide wooden blocks to bolt my sub box to and bolt the blocks to my floor. Where do I get them?

Like do they sell posts that are that wide that I can have Home Depot cut to height? Or do I have to stack a bunch of smaller ones?

You're talking about glulam but that's impractical and expensive for your application. Just make a hollow box about of 1/2" mdf to the size you need.

yeah it's not much I just need 4 blocks lol. I have my box sitting on bricks right now and it's not moving much but it vibrates the bricks and they rattle against the floor causing a lot of rattling noise. Trying to get that out the way before I deaden my truck so I can see where I really need it.
