you must read this. once you have started there is no turning. a little 10 year old girl was raped and murdered in 1945. her body was not found until 1947. then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him. if you do not copy and paste this onto 10 videos in 30 minutes the dead girl will apear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you. well you better start to cop
out of curiosity why do you apply the matting to the inside? im researching ideas as i want to build a custom enclosure for my monte carlo and im new to fiberglassing
Hey Hugo, it's Art with the Hologram photos in adventure dome. I like your videos man nice detail in the filming your a good craftsman my friend! check out my videos dude.
Nice build. I make them all the time and I will never use fleece again. The cloth doesn't wet out with resin very well and the strength to weight is horrible. Not to mention the cost of all the resin the fleece soaks up. Try using a really thin stretchy first layer of cloth to get your shape and then woven fiberglass closs for three or four layers over that. You will avoid the need for body filler all together.
I like this video. It would be really neat if you did more pictures with labels. Or showed some of the applying the resin and glass... Im making one of my own.. i really have no fiberglass experience. Check out my video. I got a feeling it will be very nice in the end.
Fleece provides no strength. Just the shape to glass over. I don't even use fleece most of the time. I use a fiberglass cloth for the initial layer and chopped matt on the inside once the first layup dries. I don't do drastic shapes with this method...but it's stronger and no added weight from resin/fleece combo.
hey hope u will answer my quesstion. what are the dimentions od the box and the ports.i am going to make one just like yours but it will be for a 10" driver
@hurtugood86 hey i am new to systems since i am 16 and have my first car but i want to put a ported box in it with a 12 in rockford fosgate punch and just wondering how big the sub encloser should be i been trying to figure it out but its just stressing me out so much i can't focus on my jobs
Comment for Adamsuave. The MDF rings that support the sub provide most of the meat to hold the sub in place. I recommend pre drilling the holes through the fiberglass larger than the screws or the fiberglass will crack when the screws go through.
If the weather was cold then you will have to mix it with double the amount of hardener. Another problem could be that your resin is past the shelf life and it causes it to become thicker and takes longer to dry.
what is the blue cloth that you use and where do you get it? (i have also seen it in green purple yellow i just dont know what it is exactly or where to get it) i like the look it gives with the final product
LoL, it's actually part of the mold. If you look at it again you will know what I mean. But I see why you got it twisted so it's all good. I would have a lot of returns from my picky customers if my paint job was no good.
oh alright thanks, i've done some fiberglassing before and i'm planning a BIG fiberglass install and i could never find a material that worked that well, i'll try that for this project
Yeah; i wonder about the same thing as drewdrew1985. what is the blue fabric called and what can you use exept that when u are building a fiberglass speakersystem??? any ideas????????
tight as hell dude, love your work. i am getting into some fiberglass work, sub box, ported or not ported, i dunno which'll be louder, but my back bumper as well. nobody makes a body kit for my car and i m gunna just make 1 myself. very nice though man
Not a bad looking set. But the drape method & wood hybrid style you're using might be costing you more time & material (and weight) than prefab fiber mesh and foam plugs would. You might find woven meshes less likely to crack from low frequency impact, & would be a good selling point to enthusiasts with high expectations.
You're right on some areas nonsoundflux, but I disagree with the foam plugs. I have tried different cloths and draping methods and I can truly say that this is one of the most convinient methods for me, atleast with ported boxes. I have better methods for sealed boxes though. Maybe I will post one soon. All my enclosures are build to specs and for excellent sound quality :)
Normally a box like that goes for about $450 to $700 and that's because it is ported and tuned for JL Audio 10w7 specs. My price goes according to the size of the box and paint. Many installers don't build ported fiberglass boxes, it's too much work as you see so they usually have to charge a little extra for the labor.

Not a bad looking set. But the drape method & wood hybrid style you're using might be costing you more time & material (and weight) than prefab fiber mesh and foam plugs would. You might find woven meshes less likely to crack from low frequency impact, & would be a good selling point to enthusiasts with high expectations.

You're right on some areas nonsoundflux, but I disagree with the foam plugs.
