So update.. i got the frame built and fleeces the box and started to fiberglass some of the box. will post photos later...

 

I got to go find my PORTACALC, when I find it I will let you know whats up.

Also, try and find me an exact airspace please.

 

Do you know anything about tub ports? If i have enough space wonder if i should give porting a shoot...

 

Tub ports?!? What do you mean by that?

 

Opps I meant Tube Ports...

 

As in, like a 6" round?

 

**** i dont know sizes but i know some ppl put in a round tube as a port..

wondering if you like them or not...



PS. IM starting to hate this box.... take fu.cking for ever....

 

Can kitty hair type body filler be used to strengthen the fiberglass? Almost like a layer of mat?

 

ok i need to find some really thick mat. Where can i go about finding this any suggestion on where to look locally?

 

I think someone is in over his head

 

panic time, mine is taking forever too

 

I still havn't finished my install, lol

 

trust me im not in over my head... i just don't like long projects.

 

Fiberglassing is very time consuming.

You shouldn't use kitty hair to strengthen the box, you should be using fiberglass mat. Kitty hair is much more expensive than mat and resin.

You're probably looking for a thickness of about 3/8 to 1/2"... cut the mat into 8x8" pieces (or maybe even larger) and do one piece at a time, overlap each piece, dont always let the grain of the mat run in the same direction. Once you get it done, do it again. Don't mix more resin than you can use in 20 minutes, or else you'll end up with wasted resin.

 

Oh, and I still haven't finished my project...
