Regal Doorpod Glassin' (pics)

Yea, that is a lot of pictures of tape. After looking at those again it is way overkill. But it took me about 2 hours to tape both doorpanelsl!!!!!!!

The work is all me pretty much mine. Elias helps little bits here and there, (mostly holding stuff) but he hasnt done any ACTUAL glassing.

UPDATE...

I cut the mounting baffles out.

Jigsaw skillz baby! OK maybe not perfect, but they'll get the job done!

UPDATE:

Taped, prepped and glassed the rear half of the doorpod enclosure. You can really see this project coming together now.

After they have cured a bit...

Popped right out! (I used cooking spray as a mold release agent)

^ Now you are certainly thinking that these look a bit thin. Because they are. I didnt want to put 3+ layers of glass while they were still on the doorpanel - before they got so thick that I wouldn't be able to get them out without cracking them. I'll be adding 2 more layers to the surface of these this weekend if I can find the time.

Look at all the tape that was on those doorpanels. Whew!

These are actually starting to look like something.

grrr.. this is wanting to make me go play with some glass

lookin good man, i think i see how theyre going together now

[ngsm13 1]

How far out are you going to elevate the baffle? Just wondering...looking good so far..little small...but hard to tell overall volume without the elevation! peace

I am actually getting all the volume I need from that small little cup (see last images) on the back that fits inside of the factory 5.25" speaker mount. According to DLS, they only need a 0.4-0.9 LITER enclosure. (really small)

They will probably stick out about an inch, maybe less from that bottom ridge of the doorpanel. I'll be elevating them out with some dowels, so I should gain a bit more volume from that.

Don't worry, once the next bit is done these will start to make a whole lot more sense.

I give you a lot of credit for giving me the confidence to attack this projefct. Without me having seen your worklog I would probably have never attempted this myself. Fiberglass has made it possible for me to display my creativity. I am honestly get more and more into this the more I work on it. I am really having a great time doing this project, and I can guarantee all that come to the meet, you will not be disappointed.
