Finally made up my mind!

I'm getting an RE SE 12".

I'm looking for a custom box that is 1 cu ft SEALED.

Please let me know if you can do this, and how much, and how long it will take. Also I need carpetting, grey or black, whatever.

to far away for me to mess with it, shipping and all. find someone closer to you.

Yea, anyone that could make it for you would have to charge you too much for shipping. It'd be very easy to do yourself though.

are you sure you couldnt build this box yourself? building boxes isnt too hard, especially a small sealed box... and you wouldnt spend much..

Hum.. I'll take a look at the installation FAQ, but I'm telling you guys right now I'm not very artistic at all and I have trouble doing things like this haha.

All you need to do is cut 6 pieces of wood very accurately. Thats the hard part. The easy part is gluing and screwing or stapling the box together (as long as you have a helper). You must know someone who is handy w. power tools...no?

The thing is I kind of want to make a hatchback so I can save as much space in my trunk as I can.

Where can I buy the wood? Can I tell them to cut it very accurately for me?

You should be able to get the wood at any lumber yard or home creepo. Its called Medium Density Fiberboard, or just MDF. 3/4" will be fine. I think the last sheet i bought was like 20somethin dollars.

I dont think they cut wood for you tho. you must have at least one friend who has a table saw or circular saw and a good carpenters square.

Eh.. a lot of my friends do, except that they don't use it, it's their Dads and I don't really want to bother them and aks them to cut my wood haha
