does anyone know how to suspend the sub surrounds in the air while you fibre glass it, i heard a roomer about using chicken wire, but need alittle more help then "just use chicken wire" so if anyone can explain how to do a boot build or know of any DIY on the internet then it would be most helpful

cheers

what do you mean by sub sorrounds mate,,the box that the subs enclosed in???? ive had a pop at fiberglassing a couple of boot layouts in the past,,and while its very messy and hard work its worth it as the end results are normally stunning,
