- Measured the inside radius of the speaker, and drew a circle. I call this a poor man's compass (yes, that's a twist handle for a venetian blind).



- Once the inside was cut out, I placed the speaker in to check for fitment and traced the outside ring.



- Positioned the ring using dowels and hotglue.



- Took yellowblankets tip and picked up a can of underliner spray. Now if it sounds like crap I have someone to blame. HAH!



- Wrapped the box with cheap fleece from my local fabric shop. You need to be meticulous at this point because this largely dictates what the final shape of the box will be. Stapled to all mdf and used 3m adhesive spray to attach to the fiber.



- Did a test fit. Decent. There are some points at the rear that will have to be ground down a bit to sit perfectly flush, but it's close.



- Mixed a few batches of resin, and applied it to the fleece... allowing it to soak all the way through.
