Re: Repower Update
I trashed my original box when I re-powered. Nothing special about it. Just a fiberglass box that held two big Surrette 8D's. It was glassed into the port side on a small shelf.
You could easily make a better one.

Or just buy them... Battery boxes are pretty cheap...Tony Meola wrote:You could easily make a better one.

If those are your current box above and you need another, wrap it HD wax paper, wax the paper with paste wax and layup some glass. When it sets, pop out the old box and layer glass to as thick as you want.

Re: Repower Update
I'm picturing one of two responses from Capt. Patrick to your post, Bruce. The first one would be "well, I'm glad to see you listened and paid attention to me..." the second, "Let me look out back, I've probably got a mold I already made...."Bruce wrote:If those are your current box above and you need another, wrap it HD wax paper, wax the paper with paste wax and layup some glass.
