i plan on making my own box in the future(pretty soon) wut measures do i need to make it sound good, etc. wut kind of wood also. i plan on getting 2 Pioneer TSW304DVC 12 inch ones. i want them to be facin down and amps be like under plexi glass near the spare tire well. u gusy thinkt hsi can be done? i have alot fo time so time shouldnt be an issue. wut materials are needed? im still new to the audio stuff. thanks

 

also want it to be in vinyl too. any hepl would be greatly appreciated.

 

GEt 3/4 MDF, asheet at Home Depot is about $20. THey will cut it down to fit in your car. Download Blaubox from Blaupunkts website, enter the T/S parameters from SUb and it will help you design a box, tell you what size pieces to cut, etc. Don't forget the silicone for caulking, wood glue, and some drywall screws, and a drywall/countersink bit for your drill. For vinyl wrapping you will need a heat gun, contact cement, and I prefer using a glue spray gun(basically a plastic cup with a metal tube sticking up that attaches to air compressor), and PATIENCE. Get extra vinyl and practice because you WILL burn it, melt it, cut it wrong, F#$@ it up your first time. Also a roller for wallpaper helps to stick the vinyl down good w/out burning the crap out of your fingers.

 

wuts MDF mean? sorry for newbie questions. everythgin else i got pretty much down thanks for replying.

 

medium density fiberboard

 

k thanks alot

 

also i forgot to mention it'll probably be a custom box not a regular rect. one. so are the materials and stuff all the same?

 

Yes, unless you need to fiberglass it. THen you will need fiberglass resin and matting.

 

...and something to protect the car from moulding the box directly to it - and cups and stirrers and gloves and a mask andI could go on and on

What type of box did you want to do, that will determine the materials you will need.
