A few pics

duraglass, it give the box some thickness to make it stronger and help keep the sound where it needs to be coming from, the sub not the box.

Is that like everglass? A fiberglass reinforced bondo basically?

it would hurt to put some in my box anything can help

yes it has many names bondo-glass, duraglass, everglass. as for using it for making a mdf box stronger i think its too expensive. some dowel rods and a little fiberglass and your good to go. the only reason i used it was because it an easy way to get something thick fast.

oh and i got two of four layers of mat on the front today

well i still have another car to play with

Why not just use sea glass, it is what I use and it is very cheap, made by evercoat and it is cross woven 1/4 thick fiberglass mat. It is great for building fiberglass boxes that need alot of strength.

i will give it a try sometime.

im sure i can get good at it

It's not perfect but it's done

Looks nice. Any pics with it installed?

Nice work man, so when u doing my doors lol

Sorry for the crappy picture

Looks good man. Great work. See what you mean about that seat clearance now.

looks great how does it sounds? it makes me want to start on the yaris now

it sounds alright. it dosen't blow the doors off but it does rattle my mirrors

thats cool wish you didnt live so far away and help me with the yaris

we can meet up someday. I am not an expert (this was my first full fiberglass project) but I have some ideas and can make it work.

Looks good, nice job for your first fiberglass job!!!!!

ok well im off every other weekend from now well next weekend i work then on off the next one after that if we can work around that cuz i dont know when you work

I like that ...

<props>

I've never been a big fan of full-fiberglass enclosures, primarily due to the time it takes to build them, then some weaknesses as compared to MDF, but in this circumstance, there was no better route to go I don't think.

That's good stuff though... I like that...

I hated the idea of using fiberglass on boxes for a long time, but when I started designing more complex boxes, (especially horns) it became my life saver, and a great aesthetic aid. I don't think theres a box that I don't use at least a little bit of fiberglass on it somewhere nowdays.

yea I had no choice if i wanted a sub it had to be fiberglass. plus i wanted to see if i could do it. i learned alot of do's and don't.
Don't use old glue!
Take your time.
Test fit often.

welli hope i have the time do start something like that i dont want to start and not finish

yea i started it 08 i think lol

well what all do i need to buy ?
