17 hours in 14 minutes. too many people don't understand this job.
Man pete.. I cant even tell you... I look so forward to every single video from you. Very rare to find a fabricator in the U.S who pays attention to the smallest details... i just finished .30 cubed kicks using the same method i learned from you. I love watching and learning! Keep up the great work you are much appreciated!
There are actually quite a lot of REALLY GREAT fabricators in the U.S., and I could probably list 30 off the top of my head from all over the country.
And all of them do very fine, detailed work. I don't know why you think they are rare?
Maybe because they are not "popular" TH-camrs and don't advertise or produce videos like Peter's because they are just too busy actually doing the work. But there are plenty of amazing fabricators out there.
But, just like with Pete's builds, you are going to pay a premium for that level of skill and knowledge.
So much informations and tips in this video, great to see you working on timelapses too 👍😎🙏
Information even a novice like myself can use and understand how much dedication this will take, thank you and merry Christmas to you and yours!
A lot of installers I know are afraid to reveal their 'techniques' in fear of losing a potential customer. I love car audio as a hobby because I like listening to great sounding quality music in my car but I know my limits when it comes to fabrication. This video is very helpful in making that next leap into this craft to understanding the method to the madness. Am I going to do it anytime soon? I don't know. Likely not. I'd rather pay someone to do it. But we always have a fall back video thanks to Pete.
I also believe that's what many installers think. The issue is... A person who is determined to do something themselves, they will learn to do it because it's fun. Because they feel good doing their system by their own. This gives them satisfaction, even though it is difficult for the average joe. These types of people will not be potential customers anyways. So there's no harm in showing it.
The people that look at this video and say "that's way too complicated for me" will always resort to pro installers. So nothing to lose.
Thanks as always Peter! Merry Christmas mate!
Always so good to see you on TH-cam. I won't ask any questions..Haha. excellent craftmanship Peter. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Thank you Peter for taking the time to make this video.
As allways awesome fabrication👍👍
Fantastic work and generous to show the community how to do it. Thanks Peter.
Nice video Peter. Thanks for your time taken which saves time for others. 👍
Fantastic video filled with great information as always. Everyone should watch it a couple times just to get all the information. Thanks for all that you do.
Great video as always. 👍 Much easier to learn when things are shown and explained than reading for me.
You're simple the best Peter. Thank you !!! 🙏🙏
What an incredibly informative video. Thank you, Pete
Amazing work 👍...the way you fabricate with wood is so different. Fit and finish at its best. Thx for sharing your knowledge 🙏
Man you build some bad ass pillars all of your work is beautiful 👍👍👍
When you stir filler when mixing you add air bubbles into it. If you feel you have to do it that way, spread the filler out in a straight line pressing down with your putty spreader to push them out before you start applying. Using a 2 part glazing putty for your final spread will will level out really nice and will require less sanding too. You can even add fiberglass resin (mixed properly) to your regular filler for more flow as well.
xtremekustomz1 thank you for the tips! 👌🙏
love that plywood strip technique! Very clean!
Peter is the Bob Ross of car audio!
Feels like just yesterday this video released. Thanks for dropping so much knowledge.
great stuff peter. thank you for showing us all.
Peter is by far the best builder period!!!
this was one of my favorite videos peter,i liked the time lapse a lot im sure its maybe easier for you too so thats good,happy day haha
Super cool video. I like what you said about sharing information. Everyone knows something you don't. That's a great way to learn
Omg! Thanks for all the tips and details! ♥️😍🤤
Amazing work as always 👍
excellent video. thank you peter
The video i,ve been waiting for, but I do have my car.. 🤣🤣.
Thanks a million Peter.. I,ll have this on replay already.
As always on point with the information 💯
Peter, once gain your skills that you share are top notch! I have followed you since the beginning, and over the past 3 years have built 3-4 different a-pillars for my own Jeep. Each one, became better and better, I think I have finally nailed it!!! I figured out my own "milkshake" made a hell of a mess several times trying, lol. I completely understand the time frame to make YT videos, I have been showing my off road camper build on my channel....lots of work for 10 minutes!! I might have to to some YT of them, I have so much footage of my a-pillars, sub boxes, etc.....including screwing shit up!! I will be looking into your Patreon in the new year, hopefully this Covid passes soon and finances are once again better. Thank you for all you have shared. Best to you and yours this holiday season, cheers, from cold and snowy Ontario, canada :-)
Awesome work Peter👍
Yeah,peter you Made a name for yourself, congrats to all your success!!
I heavily admire your work. good luck to you!
Amazing work Peter
Years of knowledge in this video. Invaluable
Extremely helpful. Getting ready to make my second A-pillar build, and hoping to improve on the original. This helps tremendously.
Great in depth video thanks for sharing
This might be the best video I've ever seen on TH-cam
Ohhh nooo, there are many lovely cat 🐱 videos! 😃
Peter, AMAZING!! nuff said
Merry Christmas Pssound !! ❤😉
Carlichi i hope you had a great one too! 💪🤘😎
@@pssound9749 thx Pete! and Crew! i hope u all have a nice good new year!!! greetings!
It's cool you doing the patreon thing I mean you gotta make a living, I'm 49 and got away from car stereo years ago but I stumbled upon your channel and you fired my engine up again. You make installation fun again and try your best to do it to the best of my ability. My skill is low but I give it my best shot every time. I didn't even know of the brands you use I thought zapco was a cheap sorry brand till I done some research lol. Well anyways I'm a miss your TH-cam stuff, I'm a fan
Thank for this videos!! You are the Master! 🙏🙏🙏🙏 Thank!!!Thank!! And Thanksss!!! 👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
awesome work, thanks
Awesome work. 🔊
It was so interesting the first time I saw you make pillars. I’ve always either freehanded them with glass or used polyester fabric. I will try your technique in the future.
Very informative thanks bro. 👍❤️
Great job Peter. On video and pods. When I grow up I want to be like you. 👍
Please continue to share your videos on youtube. Your experience motivated me to start to build my own sq project by myself!!! Your fan from Azerbaijan!
Стас Хлынов wowww, that is quite a distance away! 😃
What is car audio life like over there?
@@pssound9749 youtube-connecting people;-) To be honest SQ life is very poor, most young guys tend to build SPL project's, maybe early deafness)), maybe the absence of music taste. Anyway, SQ is not so cheap hobby, and many people do not understand how you can spend so much $ and effort, just to feel your self as you on your sofa listening to music, but you are in a traffic jam when other's around you listening to terrible noises.
Thank you for your time and for your ability to share with us and help us in our endeavors!!! It's really motivating
@@user-xy5wn3rp7n Согласен!
Respect from Russia!Great job!
I’ve got excellent stitching on my pillars
I spent about 25 hours total on my pillars that are only for some Utopia M 3.5wm mids. After you get the aiming right, building the structure isn't that bad. It's reinforcing everything and then applying the filler and sanding that takes most of the time. I use a pistol grip air DA with 3", 2" and 1" attachments and that speeds up the process. If you had to sand by hand it would take 3 times as long. You end up doing multiple applications as you fine tune the shape and make them symmetrical in appearance as much as you can depending on the angles. I chose equal off axis so that the drivers side measures 30 degrees off axis and the passenger is about 7 degrees off axis. The Utopia M's will measure about the same in my desired frequency range. My tweeters are both exactly 15 degrees off axis to the driver and right over 20 degrees to the passenger. Both tweeter and mid are oriented to maximize single seat tune with 2 seat tunability in mind for future competition. The drivers aren't just randomly placed, there is thought and planning involved.
Epic video
subbed for your hard work :)
for years I thought it really didn't matter and I prefer the sound hitting the windshield with the highs from the tweeters and so forth. I was so wrong. There are really some absolute great advantages for having the tweeters in the driver's name that you on access and I have to admit if you could do that with midbass drivers even better.
for years I thought a three-way system would probably be best it still has its merits put in a vehicle I have to admit having a very good two-way system well there is this wonderful thing about Imaging and Driver placement then happens when you're able to go and do that with a wide range driver up at the top where your ears are and have it cover as much frequency as possible and have the door speaker do its job of lower mid Bass.
3:00 The Twisting issue of resin curing is magic mate!
Thanks for that tip on doing pillars.
Damn your attention to detail is worth every farthing. :)
I am just about to do this 2-way on a Jeep Wrangler JKU Hard Rock.
Plus a 6" in the front bottom of the front door, and an 8" in the back of the door. (fab lower half of the door, then leather covered.).. not sure on the back 2 doors if it will just be a set of 6x9 for space from the wheel well cut-out.
Suggestions?
Great tutorial video, Peter. Your videos are always so inspiring👌. Excited to have a look how they feel after finish, inside the car.
Can you please share a link?
I’m see the car at the end of August and i’ll share a video of it! 👍
Think of how the fibre glass will handle ☀️ summer heat too. I used cut pvc pipe which was good as fibre glass sections slightly caved in summer time but the trimmed and stitched black leather can stretch and warp the whole A pillar too.
A good project in the car audio journey 👌
Love watching your super informative video on how to make pillar pods - thanks Peter. Was going to ask you which size threaded insert you are using but then 3rd watch I caught it ;-) May I ask what size to use for tweeter and the bigger stuff like SBP15 / IB15AU? This is the path I’m going with my build. Also I think a dedicated video on fixings, ferrules and things like that would be well received. Thanks again Peter!
Subs usually need M5-M6, depends on the basket and mounting hole size.
There’s lot more stuff on www.patreon.com/pssound going into deeper detail.
Your work is incredible mate, can see you take pride in everything you do! Loving the videos. Would love to build a system and have you tune it if you’re ever in Perth Western Australia
I’m planning a training course there this May/June, hopefully it’ll happen. If it does, then we could sort out a tuning session if you already have a system. 😎
Hey Peter, I was literally just signing up to your Patreon and seen that you actually planned to come here. Unfortunately I don’t have anything decent as yet. At the moment I just have some Alpine-R components installed in factory locations (doors/A-pillar’s) running off an Alline PDX-V9 Tbh it sounds sound great at all but your videos have inspired me to start a new setup from scratch. I doubt I’d even have everything before May/June. Can I ask do you plan on coming here in the future? If not it’d be great ti at least meet you this time round at least.
@@Jeenzy79 well, even the current plan for this year is a proposal, it’s not guaranteed if i don’t have min 3 people signed up for the training. It’s a pretty crazy expense to travel down there and to leave my daily life and business behind too, so we’ll see what happens.
Personally me & wife would love to visit Australia again as we had an amazing experience last year, but it’s all about interest and budget management.
@@pssound9749 Totally understandable, I know what you mean when you say it can be a costly exercise coming here. Is the training more focused towards say, shop owners/installer’s?
Thanks for taking the time to reply mate, I appreciate it. Hopefully it works out well for you.
Just found the TRAINING playlist. Will check it out.
Really loved the video and your instruction. My only suggestion is to reduce, or even better eliminate, the music over your voice. Its ok to just have your voice, that's what i'm here for :) Cheers
I always like videos that explain how much work is involved. So sick of "Why so much?!" lol
Wow!
Pss Hello, can i know how to know get good position angle.... how to i aim? I first time learn about make a pillar. I your fan form malaysia. Your channel let me learn more about car audio. Thank you shared your experience.
"always great work" To bad i don't live in your area definitely would have you do MY fronts and rear pillars
Hey Peter, question about these and your other more recent build, How did these ever get trimmed in the end? did you trim them yourself or was it something else like flocking material or just sprayed? I finally got some time to tackle my own mid builds for the audible physics drivers I got and they're now ready for trimming/painting etc but they are very awkward just like these builds in your video (just without the tweeter). I've got some cheap OEM style stretchy fabric on the way for them but I know alcantara would be a no go unless it was stitched panels, so I was considering flocking them like a rally dash or maybe just try stretchy vinyl.... how have you tackled these difficult builds? I'd like your feedback/comments on the build if I could send a picture or two on the FB page or public group.
First of all I must thank you for all those great videos that you are making. I have one question about what "tools" you use when aming your speakers? Some people use their eyes. Some use laser pointers and other people just place them where they fit best. I am about to start my A-pillar project and dont know any easy way to get them installed at the right angle.
Great Vid ! What would you do if there was an Airbag behind the Pilar?
I’m trying to build this for the Honda accord like your previous one.
Hi, airbag is never an issue. We have a video about A-pillars and airbags on the channel too.
Love the stuff you do guys. What is that green compound you use for the backside of the pillars? And it looks to be the same product used for the shaping of the outermost side. I'm in USA if that helps.
It’s fibrefiller, like what you call bondo over there.
Nice looking pillers. What kind of fiberglass filler did you use? In America we usually use dynatron ultra glass or dyna glass maby evercoat everglass sometimes.
Stormy Young there are all sorts of types. I like ones where the fibreglass strands are small.
Awesome videos we appreciate it ...have a sniff has me LMAO 🤣
@Pssound
Another nice fabrication tutorial, Pete!
I'm just curious as to why you are not yet using plastics such as HDPE, Sintra/PVC, Perspex, Marine/King Starboard, or ABS, etc for your door mounted speaker baffles/rings?
Is it too expensive in the U.K.? I like HDPE for thicker baffles such as the ones you made here for the midbass drivers because it is much more dense (heavier, more concentrated mass) compared to any wood and it's obviously 100% waterproof.
It's still extremely easy to cut and shape like wood, and it's also easy to create threaded mounting holes directly into the material using thread taps, which reduces the extra time and expense of using threaded inserts. And there are threaded inserts made for plastics as well.
bb foto it’s mainly supply and cost related. When i can i use perspex for smaller speakers or steel rings. I’ll definitely make a move on HDPE next year even if clients can not afford it! We can’t charge $100-200/h here like shows over there.
shiiiiid....as you said coke, I was about to ask if it was columbian or mexican.....LMAOOOO!!!!...awesome vid pete!!
Modzie 🤣🤣
another amazing DIY vid Peter.... if the pillars are covered in fabric does it need to be stripped off before starting the build?
It’s actually better to bond to trimmed surface, but may need resin layer at the end and sanded back.
@@pssound9749 thanks Peter... cheers
Any chance to get the list of the products you are using ? Thanks
Pete, do you ever have any issues with heavy drivers in pillar builds, do they ever pull the panel from it's clip mounts?
Hi, if there is no stretch on the pillars and they kept their original form, then the clips hold very tight, never had issue with them.
Hi! I've fabricated many kick panels in my time and I'm getting ready to do some 3" a pillars for the first time. I know the best angle for kick panels after a few tries. Can you tell me the best angle for the a pillars? They're wideband 3" drivers. It looks like you aim them straight at the headrests of each seat on the side of that a pillar which to me would seam like you'd only hear the speaker right in front of you. Do you use time alignment to get a better stereo input to your ears? If you don't want to share your secret, no worries. I'm sure there are variables like what speaker being used, the interior of the car, etc. Just wondering? Thanks, love your videos!
Please watch PART 1-3 in the Sound Quality in Car playlist first.
Those pillars are beautiful I love the plywood strips method. Btw Is taking like a 4" coaxial driver separating the tweeter at the terminals bypassing the factory bass blocker/cap on the tweeter and bi amping them or hooking them to an actual 3 way crossover for the midrange and tweeter (with a midbass driver in the door) in a 3 way system? is that a thing does anyone ever do that? Seems like with a decent quality coaxial it would work fine, maby not as good as seperates but pretty good... Any input would be appreciated, thanks.
Waltzs budgetBumpin i only build fully active systems, no passive Xovers.
Well I wasn't really focused on the crossovet setup it's going active when I can swing the extra components, it was mainly asking even tho it's not the standard practice and not the optimal setup but the opinion on the viability splitting up the connections and bi amping 4" coaxials drivers for mids and highs on a 3 way. But whatever no biggie thanks for even taking the time to read and reply at all. Love seeing your craftsman you do it's always beautiful.✌️
Waltzs budgetBumpin oh you definitely have the best chance to try that first with a coax as you don’t need time-alignment between mid + tweeter. Even if you just bi-amp them, you can still set levels independently, but once you can select X-over and independent EQ for each in fully active configuration, things can go to another level! 👌🔊🔊 However, tuning becomes more complex too. 😖
about the doorspeaker ring maybe they are made from green water resistant MDF V313
This was awesome and gave me a lot of ideas for doing my own. But how would you do a single tweeter off-axis?
casemods single tweeter off-axis? No, I wouldn’t do it at all! 😃
I dont get it? Where does your confusion come from? He shows you in this video and plenty of other videos on the internet on building A pillars. You should research before asking questions that he has given answers to and also explained.
Michael my videos are too long and people don’t watch them in full detail, i’m used to it. Sometimes i have patience to answer, but other times.. 😃🤣
@@pssound9749 Pete, just so you know, you have subscribers out here who are interested in the longer vids. When I have an alert for 1 of your new videos and I start to watch it, the longer the better because I am looking to "learn". Rather than asking the same repeated questions I can find answers to anywhere. I'm assuming that the true fans of yours are fans for that reason. The depth of knowledge. Were out here brother!
Michael i know and I really appreciate that! For people like you i’ve created Patreon page for, where you get proper “behind the scene” videos now too!
Ive been thinkin that bamboo mite be the perfect wood for shaping enclosures and stiffeners. Ever work with it? The japanese do amazing stuff with it. Check out the basket weaving- could make awsome enclosures. Just a thought
Ha! Well, bamboo is used extensively in Asia for similar types of work.
One important distinction: Bamboo is not a wood. It is a form of grass, and that gives it unique properties, one of them being that it does not expand or contract nearly as much as most typical woods do in extreme temperatures.
I use bamboo flooring in my house for that reason because I have radiant heating in the floors via water/glycol tubing encapsulated throughout the insulated concrete slab foundation.
@@bbfoto7248 true! u got me! lol There are some weaves that look carbon fiberish, Im thinkn i could laminate 2-3 baskets together to make cool speaker pod. Crazy audio thoughts lol
Is it possible for you to put together a list of maybe 10-15 of the best songs you would use as demo and how to acquire them on the best format for the highest quality?
Getting tired of listening to Dire Straits,Spanish Harlem , and the same Sheffield lab drum CD I have had since 1994.
Also what do you think of flash drives vs CD quality?
Thanks.
John doe CD is just a transport method, still digital, 44.1kHz 16bit, so if you have the same file quality on a stick, then it should be just as good.

Man pete I tried to make a pillar pods like yours and man I screwed it up, I should have watched your video again for how you placed the curved wood and I totally messed up now I gotta sand to eternity to get it workable. Um it pays to refresh now I gotta beast job ahead just to get back to square 😑
It always looks easier on video! 😃
@@pssound9749 I know right lol wish I had a picture to send you um
"Finish it in a day", lmao. It took me a day just to find the optimal driver response with in available positions. Another day cutting rings and preping and chopping pilars. 3rd day shaping and filling or fiber glass. 4th day final sand and paint. Took me 5 long days on my 1st build.
If your not going to do it right and try to get the best sound possible, why even do it in the first place?
There is a ton of work that goes into making pilar pods. Its not easily and if your not a skilled craftsman, I can see this taking 2 weeks after you fix all your mistakes.
