Also, some paint if you wanna paint the port. Did I forget anything? |
Silver Member Username: Jgelp7New Orleans Post Number: 114 Registered: Dec-06 | I built my own for a 15" SSD, probably pretty similar box. It'll take a day of decent work. I bought: 1 sheet MDF 1 Terminal Cup Caulk Gorilla Glue 2" Sheet Metal Screws(for the box) 3/4" Panhead screws(for the sub) 1/2" Panehad screws(for the terminal cup) You'll need: A circular saw and sawhorses for cutting the pieces. A jigsaw for the sub cutout and terminal cutout Drill for pre-drilling holes and screwing in screws. Sandpaper for fine adjustments Speaker wire to wire the sub up It was pretty easy and came out pretty good. That gorilla glue is the sh!t. take it easy on the MDF is splits easy and is very dusty. Ask Logan for some more help, and go to subwoofertools.com to get some plans. |

If you dont want Logan to build one for you and you build one yourself, check out this article: http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/reviews/20030701/build_box.html It helps out. |
