What kind of process did you do to make the box?

I have been thinking about making one or finding someone to make me one. Just been on the list of nice to have.

Just a lot of measuring the contours of the hatch to make fit.
I would just hit 3 audio shops and get their quotes as to what they charge so u know what the norm is. Otherwise just take your time and start taking measurements. I use 3\4 birch wood..brad nails..glue etc.

I make shallow versions which seem to be the more popular of the two...(shallow boxes and deep boxes)

You should sell some of those on here, I would totally pay for a box made like that for my R. Around here the only shop I really trust, is backed up until the end of October to do anything.

Yes but only locals. I can fit both 10 and 12inch. Shallow boxes can fit most 10 inch and some 12 in shallow subs. Deep box can fit most regular 12in subs.
Dang it. Well if that ever changes to sell outside of local I would be interested in cost and whatever shipping will be. Otherwise I may have to do some research to make one at some point.

Sorry..not sure what happened with my reply being all over the place.
So yea these are just to expensive to ship. The process in making these out of 3/4 birch wood is time consuming but better for my health in the long run.

If you would have some written out plans, or details, I maybe able to help get them into a format easily shareable to those outside your area, if that would be an option.

How much are you selling a 10 inch box for?

I’m looking at making one of these. I live in Maine so I see you don’t ship. Any chance you could give me some design tips?
