Default 2-12" sub box project...a few pics

Today I decided to make a 2-12" box. I figured I would shoot some pics along the way. The pics are of the templates. Once I have the templates they are loaded into the computor.

The plan was to fit a design between the strut bar and rear speaker area and leave some storage space.

Box placement in this area


Cutting area at my shop...it was clean 2 days ago


Bottom plate...I always start with the bottom plate and work my way up


Angle finder


Bottom plate cut










































This was a tough design. I've been thinking of how to do this box for a long time. I'm pretty happy with it....8.5" mounting depth & 2.00ft^3

Have a great night!

Looks good. Im still wainting on a one 12" enclosure that will go under the strut bar and protrude out enough to fit one 12. Ive only seen one member here with one. It was on a lemans sunset.

Same here. Any chance of making that for a single sub - cutting off one side to make it 1.3 cubes or so?

I can make this box for 1-12", 2-12", or 2-10's. For the 1-12" we would just reduce the airspace using dividers inside the box.

Thanks Mike

I like the idea of 1-12", and the placement of this one. Just let us know when can get them and prices.
