My first box w/pics

looks really good

I didn't really make this clear, but this was the first time I had entered the world of fiberglassing. Overall I'm really impressed by it. I'd like to thank everyone on this site for all of their help. I spent many evenings doing research on here trying to come up with ideas and techniques.

Very nice design. Thats a complicated area to make a box in. I'm sure you sat there a stared at it for quite some time. I know I would have.Nik

Very nice work, you did a great first job!

Hey bro, looks good. How do you feel you did? I mean did it meet or exceed your expectations...I know alot of the time whenever I start a project I have the picture in my head of what I am going to do then somehow due to the shape of the glass it kinda takes a new form but then I work from there. now comes for the LOOOOOOONG part of sanding then even more sanding, then spot glazing, then more sanding, then coats of primer (more sanding, probably more glazing putty) then well you get the point, just let us know when you get done...lol.

thanks for the positive feedback. Yeah Nik, I did sit there and stare...for probably close to an hour, haha. This box definitely exceeded my expectations and came out pretty much exactly as I had envisioned it would. I had never dealt with fiberglass before so I was expecting to have a lot of difficulties and for it to be pretty messed up looking. It looks great and it even sounds great (first time building any sort of speaker box as well, let alone ported). I expect to be spending quite a lot of time sanding this bad boy, but it will be over quite a period of time, as I have a lot of other projects to do around the house that my father certainly finds more important. I just really wanted to get it functional. Once again, thanks for all the positive feedback!

looks great! You may want to re-do some of that vynal work on the doors though. I can see wrinkles!
