This so called "old friend" of mine doesn't really seem to be willing to assist me or guide me as far as what actual materials to buy. I get very short answers from him, if I'm lucky. And as I have been told several times now, 3 gallons of fiberglass resin for one small-ish enclosure is ridiculous. Everyone says that one gallon of quality resin should be more than enough for an enclosure the size I need.

So at this point, I don't know what I'm going to do. I don't know if I'm going to just build a traditional MDF/birch enclosure for it, find someone else who will be willing to build a fiberglass enclosure for me, OR... Say the hell with it and forego the Alpine Type S 15" sub and go with something totally different.

All I know is that I'm getting tired of driving around with only half of a system with no sub(s).
Stick to your guns.. Go the traditional route with MDF or Birch....Much less time consuming, and a better base to build your false floor off of.

Yeah, but that's a lot of extra weight as well. Something I was wanting to avoid. And with the thickness of the wood, the floor height is going to be even higher.

Just some concerns I have bouncing around in my head.
