Did a little over the weekend

Even though I've been sick for the past few days I was able to get a little done over the weekend. I wanted to get the box installed but I just ran out of time.

what I did do was redo part of my false floor and put like a black kinda suede on the floor and topped it off with the vinyl. Looks a lot better, I also did the whole box in suede (I don't think it's suede but it looks close to it).

Anyway, here are some pics. I probably finish it up tonight, If i have enough time. I anxious to hear the new box.

 

Thanks pedro. I like the look a lot better now. I really wasn't satisfied with the work i did on it before so after looking pics on the internet i came up with this simple design.

I hope it will look good with the new box in there.

 

I was able to slip 3 braces in there. 14.5" in height and 3 inches in width.

One between the subs (front) and one in the rear and one between the 2nd sub and ports. hope that will be enough.

 

Thanks G3, I hope so too. I have my fingers crossed! can't wait to get the subs in and test the box.

 

Hopefully tonight but the latest would be tomorrow night. I just want to make sure everything is dry (bracing and seals) before a drop the subs in it.

 

thanks jonny, it's getting there.

 

Will do that.

Had a big problem this morning and I'm going to need your advice. At 4:30am I started working on the box, wiring everything up and trying to get it done so I could install it. well, to make a long story short i didn't get it installed but I have very little left to do so it will be in this evening.

Problem, in my rush to get it finished, i accidentally hit the surround with the drill and put a REAL tiny rip in the rubber surround. What can i do to fix this? will it affect the performance? I know, I'm stupid!!! I was tired and anxious at the same time. It happened so there isn't any way to roll back time.

What can i do to fix it?

 

would like a rubber cement do? rubber cement is very flexible so i was thinking about doing it that way.

At first i thought it was ok but when i took a closer look i notice there was a very small tear. well i feel a little at ease knowing that it won't cause any problems.

I'll post vids tomorrow morning my time which would be evening over where you guys are.

 

ok, thanks. looks like i gotta find some RTV now.
