Funny you should mention that.....it's a muthafuNka. I tried that in my 92 whoa back in the day, tried to round out the notches in the rear with speackers in them...I actually used 12guage fencing knowing that the chicken wire was too wide and the glass would sag in the gaps,

lil too difficult, while you're sculpting the metal, it has a tendancy to bend, plus it comes rolled and the memory is hard to work against, then you end up with flat parts or bubbles that you don't notice until it's too late to correct.

I have heard rumors of using a wood frame construction with some sort of cloth (not fiber cloth) to stretch over it and glass...but can't find such a thing, plus a curved wood frame is, well, tough to build.

I don't mean to shoot your best intentions full of holes, but sometimes brainstorming works best when you know the issues of ideas.

thank you none the less
