Cotton instead of Fleece

Hey guys i just built a sub box that housed 3 12s jls and i used 6x hanes 3pack tshirts, i cut the big parts out the the front and back of the t shirts and i used the first one strechted to the form then i fiberglass resin and i add 2 more a total of 3 pieces of the shirt and let me tell you that puppy is strong me and my brother stood on it and it didnt break, what do you guys that about this.

I don't think cotton is used because it doesn't hold resin as well as fleece does. I'm sure three layers of thin cotton shirt would be as strong as a layer of fleece. Do you have any pictures of the box?

You can use whatever you want to get the basic form, fleece is thicker and will give more strength then a t-shirt. You should still reinforce it with fiberglass mat/cloth.Certified Security Specialist

Tell Darwin I sent you.

I've been sick lately, sorry I won't be on much.

the reason i did use fleece was because of the price i sent to walmart and it was going to be like 70 bucks so i said screw that and tried the cotton, the cotton holded the resin great. Ernie

how many yards would i of need Ernie

i would say about 40 by 14 by 15 around that, thats an estimate. thanks Ernie

I got fleece from the clearance section at joans for like $3 a yard. Anyway, I'd say use fleece. I've tried doing what you did and it just came out all crappy to me. It formed fine but where the pieces of shirt were connected it would be layered and actually split on one of my boxes dispite 6 layers of glass and mat. For the best performance with fiberglass I'd recomend a solid piece of fleece.
