C5 Sub box dimensions?

I think I'm going to go ahead and try out my hand at building my own box for a 12" IDMAX. I know a lot of you guys have built your own boxes and I was curious if any of you guys could post the dimensions of the box, or anything that might help.

Thanks in advance

Luke

sending you drawings and part piece dimensions for a 1.2 cu ft enclosure, you'll need a fiberglass bottom, to fit the bottom of the well. :smash:

Thanks joe,

I got your drawing's and I'm trying to keep from making a fiberglass enclosure as of now, but I will keep it in mind. I've never done any fiberglass work before.

I do appreciate the drawings though.

Minor correction. Those plans were for a 12" solobaric that I had left over from a previous install in another car of mine but I wound up picking up an IDMAX so I rebuilt a different box using 3/4" birch for the sides/top and glassed in the bottom. I used the dimensions from the side panels except I extended the side panels all of the way down to the bottom of the well. I came up with right at 1.2 ft^3 and it sounds very good. :cheers:
