Default Can you guess what I'm doing....

Ok folks I am starting a new Project.....I love them but the wife hates it when I start them as the last one I started took me 6 months and involved totally refurbishing and modifying a CM Stacker 830 PC case for a new water cooled PC build.....and I am already planning my next one lol.

So can you guess what the first stage is going to be?



The first correct answer wins a prize

Looks like a nice piece of mdf
I'm guessing your going to be building a sub enclosure or maybe a some other sort of speaker mounting or boot build

Congratulations let me raid the prize bin..... send me a PM with your address and I will send you a prize as I am a man of my word.

Actually it is Baltic Birch as it has better sound properties than MDF. A little more expensive and slightly harder to tool but worth it.

The main aim is to make a solid 12mm think Fibre glass mould for the sub enclosure and then Bond this to the front of it so in effect it will blank off the entire left side of the car.

I will then carpet it and also mount the sub amp and Power cap into it.

Pictures will speak a 1000 words and if the mods don't mind I would like to start an official project log with pics etc.
