Tacoma Cut Through

Recommended Posts

just gonna have to sand out the areas i couldnt cut out i guess. using 1 1/4 plywood for the front baffle and back double wall... just what i had left... didnt want to buy another sheet for only two pieces. hopefully i can get this stuff to seal, it seems more pores (spelling?)

Damn it man, you are making short work out of this build.

I would be a dead man if I brought a saw horse in the house and tried cutting wood. HAHA.

I was stationed at RAF Lakenheath England from about 1993 - 1996 ... During that time I went TDY to Italy and Turkey ...

And spent a little time in the Persian Gulf ... :fing34: (not really positive on those dates) ...

eh not a big deal i just cut away the top and bottom board a little. but i was thinking the overall diameter would be just a little under 12.5 but its like EXACTLY 12.5 and thats how much room i had... i new it would be close. but i got it handled, in the middle of glassing right now at the shop came home for a smoke break real quick and to post some pictures i took while i was sanding... and a better picture of the sub.
