Hey those look great! How was it stuffing the insulation through the woofer cut out? Guess I am anal. I measured and cut my insulation then installed it before mounting the front(baffle) to make sure it fit as I wanted.

thanks, yes i fit the r13 through the woofer cutout.

i am not much of a perfectionist. as long as there's adequate stuffing i think it will work just fine.

The finish looks great. Is it spray on poly?

thanks wayne.

actually i skipped the poly, was a bit lazy, again i am pretty amateur when it comes to this stuff (this is my 3rd project).

i sanded the bb with 220 and 320 grits. applied a coat of clear shellac, sanded 400 grits. applied another coat of amber shellac, sanded 400 grits again. clean with mineral spirits and done.
