New, Redone, Project :)

I decided to redo the amp rack under my rear seat. Some of you know i did the tape/foil fiberglass method to make a form to mount the amp. Turns out it was going to be a little smaller than I needed, DOH!! On the bright side, the first go at it was some good experience, which led to a very satisfactory second attempt. I built a three sided frame out of 3/8" baltic birch plywood, formed to the floor of course and spaced about an inch from the front and side of the seat. I layed that over a taped off floor, then taped the bottom of the form to the floor. Then foiled over it for easier removal. I glassed the living sh#t out of it after that, I think I used about 48 oz of glass and many layers of cloth(glassing it up the sides of the wood). I will post pictures of this along with my box tomorrow night!! Now all I need is an amp for it!! :)

LOL, I never played those anyway. Only took me one time each to get the high score. ;)
