Yep 3 years of saving money!!

I bought most of the gear last summer.

It's been killing me just looking at it sitting in boxes.

I'll have mass pics as soon as I get cranking on it again.

I left off with the Big 3 and some layout ideas.

Got the enclosure basically nailed out on TermPak, and

I might get to start on the enclosure this weekend.

Although there's still a lot of wires to run in the cab.

Sunny and in the 70's today!

Time to carve on the enclosure for these Icon's....

Dual common chamber 8cf3 plus displacements tuned to 29hz.

Just a few more nice days and it'll be time to

slam it into the bed for some marks.

The rear of the enclosure will house the amp rack,

and maybe the secondary battery if space allows.

Coming along nicely!

Where are you located in Ohio?

A little city called Harrison, 15minutes from Cincinnati.

After the enclosure's done the tree will fall!!! LOL

It caught a disease last fall and all the needles dropped.

I still have to fill some screw heads on the sides,

add in the amprack, paint, and wrap the sucker.

Then it's on to the side pods for the rear 6x9's,

and secondary battery rack.

I haven't put it in yet.

I still have +100 sq.ft. to install.

Thanks for the comments guys!

Thumpper's trained me well on the enclosure skills.

I tip my hat to him for sure!

It also helps that I've been woodworking since I was 9 , so power tools

are no fear to me....

My father used to have a nice shop building custom desks and furniture.

Plus a little sanding goes a long way!

I did a little work today but nothing worth posting up pics,

unless you like to see mitered bracing......
