In the future, I suppose you could use veneer (and perhaps a healthy dose of bondo and sanding around the rough looking port openings) to make it look nice.

You'd be best to build a separate grill frame. And use dowels to mount in the corners. I don't plan to add grills. But I may need something when we have kids.

Here she is done for now! (i may think about laminating over the stain)
This thing sounds awesome! currently i have it in the middle of the room and it still bangs! I cannot wait for the stain to fully dry so i can corner load it.
It may not be the best build but i can say i built it! Not bad for a non-carpenter... (i think)

That looks very nice. I can't believe how big that thing is, but I bet it pounds. I'm trying to convince my friend to build a pair of those since he has a couple 12W6V2s lying around unused.

What are you using to power it?
