fg and mdf

Middle piece is scrap, you would use the FG to draw out TWO sections.  One that you would cut the middle out of the make the first baffle piece, and the other that you would cut the speaker opening out of.  Then you'd just glue and screw that second board to the baffle piece.

It's hard to say if that would be better for what we want to do or not.  I almost want to use dowelling with a mounting ring and fleece the sucker, but I think the MDF approach will make for a better blend with the trunk dimensions.

I thought the baffle was for the top side not the side for the speaker ring. It would be pointless to do it with the front side then... all these ideas are confusing me and sound like they are completely pointless and more work. I'm going to do it my way and post pics in a new thread when done in 2-3 weeks.
