Ok... i am going to make a fiberglass enclosure for a 10" sub for my Dakota reg Cab. I am going to use the measurements for a standard 10" Truck Box. I plan on making the side peices and using 1/4 Dowels to make the frame and then covering it in fleece and FG'ing it.
Do you think this will work out alright? Will the 1/4 dowels hold when i pull the flece tight? I want the rounded corners and if i have to i can just use the fleece which i think will give me a REALLY rounded corner (coming over the top of the Sub Ring and going to the back) OR jsut round off some MDF.
Am I going about this all wrong? Can i make my MDF Frame... then FG it like my diagram is? Any suggestions or Modifications? Also... once im done FG'ing it... can i drill into the side bottoms to attach brackets to attach it to my truck? Or is there a better way to attach it? Thanks for all the help!
