Este excelente DIY que dura já 2 anos é o melhor relato de montagem e uso de materiais combinados que eu já vi.

O uso de materiais como fibra de vidro, resina, fibra de carbono e alumínio são extensivamente usados com uma técnica que permite montar qualquer coisa.

Parece ser tão fácil quanto trabalhar com argila.

Confiram algumas fotos.

Drawed model and then in CNC, and sawed it out

there are nicer things in life to do, but when it's finished, it was worth the work in his eyes.

A couple of years ago, my wife was making( read: painting) christmasballes, to hang in the christmastree. She also hooked on making special things

 

When I looked at the plexy balls, I know, that sometime, I could use it for another project Well, ladies and gents, IT'S TIME

These are the plexy balls, you can buy 'm in every size. (according to his wife)

In the meantime, Ie started to try some things with those christmasballs

 

They will go on horizontally against the A-pillar of the car. Later more info on this. I made already 4 copies in polyester.

Made a hole in it, and taped it all with some tape.

 

Then I polished it all a few times, so when he takes them apart, no polyester stays sticking on the plexy.

It also took some work to make the fiberglass so smooth with as less airbubbles as possible.

 

There are 2 layers of polyester now, what should be strong enough. Don't want these things to get TOO heavy.

Made another 4 alu-rings that will come in there. So it will be possible to screw the speakers tight into the alu rings.

 

It also popped to mind that it would be cool to cover this in CF, but that's almost not possible.

The polyester balls are ready, and look good.

On the right bal, you see a piece of polyester go loose from the plexy.

Ticked it with a hammer.

 

removed the plexy (upper)

Cause I didn't want to change his original 16:9 screen in the console, I had to find a place for the ALPINE CDA-7998 Phantom Face.

 

I wanted to do this in the middle, under the armrest. Then I had to get of the front en extend it with cables. If this was an ordinary radio, no problem, but with this radio I didn't want to take the risk.

So looked for another option to place the radio, without doing harm to the looks of the interior.

 

Made little trolley to fasten the radio.
