Its getting powered with crown xs1200's.

First few coats that are applied thinly with a smooth roller yes, i mix pva in. That paint (aldcroft/tuff cab) is water based so water should work fine to. Helps the paint go a little further since the PVA is cheap.

It was a hot day by the way, im not addicted to pepsi max as those two photos may have you think.

I feel like a right rebel with the way this tread has developed........... Anyway, all painted and just waiting for some metal grille to get here. Not tested at volume yet but results to come when thats done. Shape wise these are the nicest BFM subs i've ever build and I have high expectations for t...

Yeh back corner plywood is 18mm, which the eagle-eyed may have spoted in the first post on this thread. There are no extra supports used but I did put the casters as close to the sides as possible to help with rigidty and the stability when moving them around. The casters are also secured with m6 bo...

Thanks for the kind words el, whilst i have no intentions of becmoeing an autorised builder or a joiner full time it is nice to know maybe I could one day if I decided. These were never built at the start with the intention to sell, looking eariler in the thread you will notice I was never sure why...

Yeh I will be selling half of them I'll let you know when they are finished and tested.

When I did finally decide to do a test fit it was obvious short of some serious manhandling, (compressing the gaske...

In what must be one of the slowest most drawn out builds ever i'll be posting some more updates soon. Much has changed in the build and its definitely been quite a journey, almost finished tho.

Brilliant build!

No epoxy on the t-nuts taking but them out wont be easy, they are well stuck in and removing them may harm the bite at the same time, what do you reckon about epoxy over and around the sides of them? Im not to concerned about them moving but as it will be a total pain if they do fall i'll try what i...

Well all the time I had spare to make these suddenly got eaten up so i haven't done a huge amount since last, the first 5 panels are glued together and all the other panels are preped. Only thing left is to finish the assembly, and cut some more braces, the last set need modding and im not quite dec...

Damm doing things in 8's is slow, progress hasn't been to fast but im happy to be steady away at it.
