what you need to do is tape the area with masking tape....i strongly recommend just masking tape. a lot of time duct tape leaves a residue behind because of the heat from the resin curing. after you tape the area use a cheap spray glue and put a layer of aluminum foil down. the foil is a good release agent. depending on the weight mat, a few layers of that.
then mount your rings with wood stilts and cover the whole the whole thing with mold fabrics...if you leave the mounting ring solid you can use a section of a 2x4 to mount the ring.........it will be really sturdy and allow you to pull the mold fabric super tight, thus leaving less slack to warp.

I didnt mean Duct tape itself the product is made by Duct Tape. Its an aluminum foil tape that is thicker then tinfoil and is sticky, so you dont have to use the m3 spray glue. Whichever way works fine though.

what i meant was to leave the center of the ring solid. dont cut the hole where the sub will fit in mount.
that way you have more of a solid area to mount.
