X-Line Coated XXX Box (pics)

Nice box but I dont really like the plexi with polyfill inside. Should have done one or the other imo. Looks kinda weird with that and all the caulking.

But nice job.

so how much was the line-x job? and is it the standard or does it have the xtra on it? Looks good

looks nice!!! One thing though.. I think it would look better if you taped off the plexi and painted a wide black line on it to cover the sealant on the bracing. Or make a piece to cover it and spray it with some more x-line.just a thought

sorta like this

I hesitated to post this here and know I remember why..

(I quoted you before but)

It was $200 and it added about 15-20 pounds to the box.

I hope my comment did not come off negative. Because I did not mean it that way.

I just thought that the box looked like you spent some time on it and that covering the sealant would make it look a little better.

Sorry

ahh okay, I thought you meant 2.1 cubes total. It's hard to tell using the sub as reference since the new XXX's are huge! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

As for the comments on the box I made, I did not say it was bad, and yes my box is bare MDF (it adds teh dBzzzz)

But, overall I said the box came out nice, I just wouldn't have window'd it with polyfill myself, but I can respect the craftsman ship of the box and overall I think it was a **** good job.

I realize you comment may not have been directed at me, but meh. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

EDIT : ****! Bed liner is heavy! haha, I had no idea.

My bad, missed it.

Thats some pricey shit, but worth it for the look being different from carpet.

the caulk is what stands out worst to me imo.

the polyfill doesnt look "to" bad

good quality box.

Id recommend taking a razor blade and cutting all excess silicone to atleast make the lines straight if possible.

props on the box though

Yeah I don't think the polyfill looks too bad, just different. It reminds me of those villages my family used to put under the christmas tree that used the white fluffy stuff as fake snow //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Thanks for all the positive comments!!

This box was ment to be sealed, dampened and so I could see the subs move. It worked out exactly as planned.

Thanks again

did you not want constructive criticism ?

this is usually how people get better.

not trying to be negative at all, i really do like the look of the box but the silicone screams at me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

wonder how it will sound

Cool man thanks for the reply! (sorry, I felt I was getting flammed)

And yeah I had no idea how much the bed liner weighed.. it's heavy but that's a good thing

My box doesnt look like someone jizzed all over it

 

[us3 10+ year member]

Right on guys, I must have taken the comments the wrong way

I took the constructive criticism as talking trash.

Thanks for giving me a chance to clear it up!
