Alright, Did some shopping today, got some odds and ends, Oh and some wood

3/4 Birch

Got it how I think I want it.

It's gonna be a tight fit to get them 18's in there

The accordion boot came in today.

And I think I have put the last coat of filler on. They will be covered in vinyl but I want them to be paint ready too.

Auctally a pair of MT's laying around.

They were Steve Meade's old MT's I used them for Drag finals last year. In a month or 2 I will be switching over to DC LVL4's or 5's

Mostly DB Drag / Bassrace sometimes USACi, Jaffe doesn't have many shows out here on the West coast

It is stronger and lighter, but can be a bitch to work with.

I spend more time pulling splinters out of my hands, It's tougher on router bits and saw blades. It raises the tunning just a bit over MDF. It also cost twice as much.

Alright I can't let you go any further, that is going to sound horrible. Take everything out and put it back to stock.

You can put all that "stuff" you will have laying around in my truck. I'll drop it off next week.

Seriously that system is going to rock.

I wish I had that knowledge to something in my truck.

I'll just put a little ducttape over the hole, I don't think anyone will notice

You can drop the truck off anytime, my best friends call me cash

The install isn't too bad. Just read the books and maybe a site or 2 on the internet. I didn't see any instructions on the cutting of the cab part but looked at many pictures.
