Recent box build - Toyota Yaris Forums

Build for dual 15" w0. Very cool box, and no fiberglass required, well, except for stiffening the bends

You can see below, the front bent panel had to be 2 seperate pieces, this is because I don't cut from full sheets of wood as they aren't manageable in the shop. This joint is stronger than the wood would have been otherwise, so no worries there :)

Just awesome....

How can you not fall in love with this box? 8)

so you are just notching the backside of the MDF to bend it like that?

very slick looking box by the way ;)

the "whole hatch" isn't much to take up... lol... I've been there before with temporary setups.

classic bend technique on MDF! I haven't seen that in a while. Out of curiosity, why didn't you glass an enclosure instead? Too much money?
