I used plexiglass in a door panel. Underneath the plexiglass we used a stretch fabric against the back side instead of sanding. We also cover the wood on the bottom with aluminum foil to spread/break-up the light. It makes the light-source look centered and seem brighter.
You know he probably gets 1000 messages a day right? If you wanna get ahold of him join his Patreon, Im on there and he talks to use a ton
Can you please make a video explaining how to hook the led up to the vehicle's power supply or an amp?
Yup, but a different Russell. RussLymann to be exact, haha. But you can join my Patreon and I will call your name in the future, and love the support!
"...The orbital setting on your jigsaw..."
My jigsaw is, quite literally, 60+ years old. It has two settings: "On" and "off." :-D
I find that a blade intended for thin metals works really well in cutting Lexan and polycarbonate, though. Just gotta go slow and steady!
So yeah I know this is hella old. And wondering if you're even paying attention anymore, LOL haven't looked very deep into it at this point but I've got to thank you man. Thank you for generously providing your knowledge and Skills in this area. I like to think that I was somewhat knowledgeable but compared to you and your skill I feel like a child.
Of course my friend ill tag you some pics it might take a litle time cause i have a 15 days old son and i dont want to be using fiberglass and might be harful for him
I didnt really mention it in the video but if you are just lighting it, you can use thin stuff, like an 1/8". Obviously if you are using it for a viewing window into a sub box it has to be thicker. But thats a different tutorial.
Use polycarbonate next time, I find it much easier to work with. It is a little more expensive, but if it doesnt crack when I put screws through, I will take it.
I'd rather pick up a routing table, or maybe a router that actually follows a standard (It's as old as the jigsaw), so I can get some of these nifty bits I see everyone using. The jigsaw works wonderfully! ;-D
It's great to see these older videos and compare them to the newer videos to see where you started with the older tables and the smaller router table, then to today's really nice shop, large working surfaces, router lifts ,etc. Love your videos Mark. Keep up the great work.
I plan to use plexi today for the first time. I'm going to use it for my access hole in my first successfully built forth order sub enclosure. This is the 3rd enclosure that I have built but it is the first one that acctually sounds and looks good. between CarAudioFabrication and Steve Meade's youtube pages you guys keep me inspired. Thanks for the videos. Keep them coming.
Me too! It really helps me make future videos as you well know.
Thanks! They take a ton of work so I appreciate your thumbs and shares! Thanks!
Thanks Mentalist! I appreciate your support!
Yes, subwoofer enclosure. Love your videos, very well done. I wish we had something like this back in the 90's, we had to learn the hard way. Keep up the good work.
Once used plexi years ago on a sub box, actually with lighting. Watching your brilliant ideas and exceptional finish, I have to take my next project "to the next level" :-) Have a whole car to do from scratch. Thanks for the inspiration!
I used plexiglass on a few subwoofer boxes useing 1/4 inch 1/2 inch and 1 inch thick glass love watching all your videos mark keep them up !!👍👍👍👍😊
Thanks man, it turned out sick. I like it. Thanks for posting!
Looks nice man, thanks for watching!
