more pics!

as promised...but first here's a recap.

1-22-05 temp was 32deg and we started

.

1-22-05 the fleece streched.

1-22-05 even with it in the sun it took 3hrs to harden......could be we messed up on the resin/MEKP mix? NAH!!!

1-29-05 this weekend it was a little warmer we removed the bottom and layed 3 layers of glass inside.

1-29-05 yes it was warmer but we had to help it a little....I put my son on heater duty!

1-29-05 it only took about an hour to set up then we flipped and started to prep the outside for glass.....that fun starts tomorrow.

if all gose right and murphy doesn't come around, I think we can start the bondo! yippie!

it's pretty strong with just the three interior layers....6 total should be real strong...or should i add more?

May I suggest .... Use RageGold  Xtreme for the outside ..

Way easier to sand .. gives a nicer finish ..

Spray on a Filler / Primer for the small "holes"..

then its off to Reg Primer and some final sanding ..

Good Luk .. lookin good ..

he wants the outside covered with suede, so a couple of skim coats of bondo should be enough to give it a smooth finish for that.

1-30-05 after the three layers were applied this morning we helped it dry somemore.

1-30-05 I even got in the act!

1-30-05 after about an hour we started to sand it down.

1-30-05 and this is the truck....he's getting some body work done before its painted. it used to be a candy red, he wants a medium blue with metal flake added.

the box dosent flex at all with the six lyaers on it. each sub will get about 185wrms, I'm hoping that it will hold up to that pressure, any thoughts?

we had to stop for today, had to go to work. I think we should be able to finish up next weekend.

where can i get that ragegold? any place other than online?

how thick can the bondo be and still be effective, there is a 1/8 to a 1/4 inch gap where the sub sits. it's only on one side, i was planning on building it up so the subs sit flush and gets a compleete seal.

You can get the Rage Gold Xtreme at most Body Shop supply stores  -

check with them ...

Good Luk
