Hey everyone. I was thinking about building an enclosure for my two 12" Infinity Reference subs and Amp. I know how to make the MDF frame for the box but I'm not into fiberglass so if you have any sites that help out with the processes, post them here. Thanks again

yeah a good place to start. It's where I learned the basics of it all. If I can get these friggin pics up I'll show you all what they look like. Biggest advice I (or anyone can give IMO) is make sure you know what you want the project to look like in the end. If you're not sure how you want it to look, it cannot turn out how you want it and probably will look like crap.

Ya one thing to remember, before you start, is that fiberglassing CAN be very tedious, and at time urs gonna wanna just throw it all out and say forget it i'm gonna just go buy a box, but the payoff is huge when ur done. Chris' tutorials are great. Start there, and search the site for posts on the process. If you can't find what ur looking for, you're not looking hard enough. This site has tonnes, and then some.

Not a problem. I feel its my obligation seeing as I spent hours on here learning from other guys, and now I can do it myself. Keep it real.
