Re: Building stereo box. How to do curve?

In most fiberglass boxes there is a wooden base structure and several smaller forming structures such as speaker rings. Fleece is streteched over the entire piece, then resin is soaked into the fleece.

Don't make it all one single piece. Make the center your largest piece, then each curve it's own piece. Otherwise, it will be a PITA to get it to fit into the cab, plus it allows you to add better anchor points for the box, and you can hide batteries (like I did) behind the panels.
