[glyphiks]

Thats looking awesome dude

And the epoxy is 1/2 the price of my supplier…thanks mate I didn’t expect BigBen quality first time. I should not of used course fibreglass chop. Over all I am happy with it. I nearly did it in CF, then remembered CF is like a Faraday Cage. So no signal…

[BigBen]

That’s a damned fine looking shape there.
Nice one.

Is there a good guide I can follow to making my own enclosure? I hate how my enclosure doesn’t conform to the shape of the deck and so wanna make something more aesthetic

Fibreglass : Mold and Enclosure Making : How To and How Not To

So if you are thinking of making your own fibreglass enclosure, great! It’s heaps of fun. But it is a MASSIVE amount of work. I totally underestimated just how much work it would be, but the process was satisfying and I learned a lot. There are a few different ways you can create a fibreglass enclosure, but I am going to focus on the way that I did it here, and hope that others can share their experiences as well. PART 1 - Making the Mold I decided that I wanted to make a negative mold for my…

@kalebludlow

good guide

Please use that thread only as a ‘guide’

I really should make a new one now that I have a bit more experience.

[kalebludlow]

I trust your experience more than most. Can I get basically everything from Bunnings, at least for my first try as I don’t wanna waste good quality materials on a bad attempt

[glyphiks]

Bunnings is hideously expensive for fibreglass supplies, and the stuff is shit quality.

You’ll get 5x the quantity of better quality gear from Trojan for the same price you would pay at bunnings

[glyphiks]

There ya go mate. 30 cells east to west and room for 2 x focbox. That’s pretty damn snug tho.

[glyphiks]

And there’s my setup. Suuuuuuper keen to get this running.

13s? 30q I’m guessing

[glyphiks]

Always 30q these days mate, they are the only cell I can get my hands on locally at a reasonable price.

[DEEIF]

Sweet! What are the rest of the build plans for it?

[glyphiks]

Haggy’s with the @avX v1 gear drive. Not sure on remote just yet.

[glyphiks]

Got another one of these to make. Fingers crossed for an equally good result.

[BigBen]

Wax on. Wax off.

[glyphiks]

Been doing it all night brother, your technique is working gooooood

[glyphiks]

Gelcoat in. Going for as transparent as possible with this one. Hoping it doesn’t come up looking all patchy like a lot of raw fibreglass stuff that I’ve seen.
