I'm wondering how i'd calculate the size of n enclouser... based on either dimensions i already have, or from the volume i want.. ie, 1.8^3 sealed, 3/4" MDF

hrm, thats oddd... when i do wxhxl divede by 1728, i get about 8.5 cu ft. i'm pretty sure 8.5 cubic feet would run into my front seats, lol.

edit: this is for the maximum sized box i'm willing to put in..22"x39.5"x17"

22" by 40" by 20" is pretty damn huge... and 8.5 cubic foot is right.

my box that is 6" by 12" by 12" is .5 cubic feet.

hrm, that just doesn't seem right to me, i didn't think i had 8.5 cuft in my trunk. i fugured it was much smaller for some reason.

Well shit on me.
