Default Anybody know of a good, cheap place to buy fiberglass for a sub box?

Also, does it really matter if it's chopped mat or a weave? TIA.

if you are just making a single sub box u can go to home depot. They have fiber glass matt for strength, fiberglass cloth for a smoother top layer and resin. Both the matt and cloth come in 9sq. ft. sheets, but u will cut it into strips anyway.

Yeah, that'll probably work... half of the box will be MDF anyway. Thanks!

Default Yes, use epoxy resin from USComposites.com. That, and also

You'll get better stuff for less money than the Depot.
