Quality work makes the install better even when most people will never see it!
For sure!
You've motivated me to apply for a sales job at a local Car audio shop. I hope I get the job.
Just make sure you show your excitement level, your willingness to learn, and your promise and ability to be on time and to be counted on. You stick to those traits and you can get damn near any job you want! I can’t stress enough on how important all of these are. Most shops are small.... so being a guy short on any given day may hurt that day by 25% or more. Just showing up is half the battle. Good luck bro and let us know!
@@caseytbss I'll keep yall updated. Hopefully I could finish my college classes online while working on something more interesting like car audio.
@@steelresilience how’d it go?
I use leather punches for so many things and I've found that a plastic cutting board, from any local store like Target, works great as a backer. They're usually about 1/4" thick white material. I also found that when striking the punches on a workbench, they cut much easier when placed directly above the bench leg, because the leg gives you support all the way to the floor, reducing any give in the workbench top. This may sound silly, but my workbench is 2x4 constructed with 3/4" plywood top and even as stout as it is, striking above the legs still makes a big difference.
Good input, I didn't really notice that but I bet you are right about the leg thing.
Have you tried to use just random pieces of cardboard in case we don't have a cutting board to sacrifice? Curious what your experience has been. Thanks
@@ADR69 In my experience, using cardboard won't do much to save your table top. I use these punches to punch holes in chipboard templates too. If you don't have a cutting board, I've also used the endgrain of a piece of 4x4 lumber I have laying around. The endgrain allows the punch to sink in, so it keeps your punch's edge safe from damage. The key is to use something that will protect the punch and your work surface. I hope that helps.
You can buy the cutting board material from the same place you purchase ABS usually or that is the case for me as the local store here sell it as well as must fiberglass material and you can get large sheets .
@@brianwillingham6533 this was helpful, thank you
Clean installs like this just always SOUND better just like having a clean car always RUNS better!
The channel should be called "OCD Car Audio..."
OCB
cling wrap from glad works pretty well. I know it sounds silly but it works. it's basically sticky saran wrap. and the prices stick to each other to make one big piece
Yes, use a teflon cutting board for your back, when the punch goes into the teflon, it wont dull the blade out as quickly and its more of a mobile option with multiple sizes. 3 pack of white ones at walmart does the trick.
I got those hole cutters and they are awesome. not sure why it took me so long to discover these, I have cut so many really bad holes with a scissors. thank you.
I use those punches at work for leather, and we used lead underneath.
Gives a nice clean cut.
YOUR A CAR AUDIO GOD!!! Thank you for your videos! I just got my driver's license back after 3 years and getting back into car audio. The knowledge you share is priceless! Thank you!
You forgot the nuclear explosion when you used the hammer. My bad wrong chanel.
Thanks for the tips I know Your a busy man wish You would make more videos.
Bro. Bro... bro- SERIOUSLY BRO!
THIS IS FRIGGIN GENIUS! I'm always looking for easier ways to make templates and sometimes it's on uneven or 3 dimensional surfaces. This is great. Especially since we can buy that cheaper stuff at big box home improvement stores. Nice tutorial
A self healing cutting mat would probably be a good backing board. You can get them in quite a few sizes at hobby/fabric stores and would even be good to use under your knife cuts too.
I actually have one of these, didn't occur to me to use that, I will have to try that out.
CarAudioFabrication yeah and if it is too much abuse for the mat I figured a chunk of 1/4” hdpe would work excellent.
There is a random shapes punch kit also..... seems like a good idea so you can do nice slots for door panel hooks and more.
Great video, the leather punches have so many uses. This is one I didn't think off. I am going to use this when I start my custom install in my mustang. Keep up the good work!
I use punches all of the time at my work for cutting holes in lead tape. We have a really nice harder rubber table top matting we use to protect our work tables. The punch is able to go through many layers of tape and usually goes into the mat without chipping or hurting the punches. I looked online real quick and rolls of that stuff definitely isn't cheap though. That's if I'm looking at the right stuff haha. I don't know exactly what we use but I can see if I can find out tomorrow
Bringing education to a career field where education is not a priority. Thank you, you have changed my mind to be more accepting to the trifling young kids.
Those appear to be leather works puches. You could use a leather workers mat that is used for backing those punches. They are a hard rubber that is intended to deform around the punch when striking it. Hard materials can dull the cutting edge but you can strop them to get them sharp again without having to grind. You can find them on most common leather work suppliers site.
end grain wood. You can probably check at Home Depot, or Lowes , and ask for the scrap pieces from their lumber section. Just cut them uniformly glue well and clamp together. Or if that isn't available, a single pine stud is typically less than $5. The end grain of wood will spread around the punch instead of coming out in plugs, so you'll have good longevity, and once you have the 'board' glued up, you can mount it to another surface for more mass.
Thank you! I always hated doing this because of how the results interfered with the various protrusions.
I would use cheap ridged foam. Its cheap light and easy to cut to fit a table. I use it with my hand held skill saws when ripping wood.
The link for the green TESA Tape no longer works, could you please update your link for purchasing that product please! Thanks mark :)
In the Navy we used a block of lead for punching gasket holes.
Also you could use various sizes of small pieces of copper pipe. I use those for leather and many foam projects. Just sharpen them with a blade and you’re good to go.
Not worth the effort when the kit is as cheap as it is. Plus the copper is likely to deform over time. Copper pipe isn't that thick.
I have a good car, cheap car, its a Hyundai Elantra. 2000 to be exact. Old car, low miles, works for my life. It has less than 900000 miles. However, cheap car, and I love audio. So I have a single 12" Kicker comp Q 12". 2.833 cubic foot box tuned to 33 hrtz. Now to be clear, this sub is sick! In fact I have never heard a single 12" sub, sound as incredible as this sub. Especially for volume at depth of frequency. And I've had JL's and Fosgates, And Alpines. This sub Hits deep and loud! However, freq response is 20-100 hrts. So I have to rely on my doors and decklid for midrange, and frankly, they cant keep up. So I need a way to Improve my midrange volume, and response. I have a Kicker 1200.1 for the sub (which is too big, I'd recommend something around the 800w range) and I have 2, 6.5 Kicker DSC's in the front doors and 2 Infinity Excelon 6x8's for the rear deckllid. With a Kenwood Excelon tier head unit. Now low end return is quite substantial (it pops my trunk). However, I hear a lot of sound outside of my car and there is minimal factory sound deadening. Now I know that I need to improve my sound deadening. My question is, (I know I need so step up my door speakers, and I will) will the sound deadening truly improve my internal volume and midrange? And, side note, I have a 4 channel Sound Ordinance 4x100 amp (that will be upgraded shortly) that is powering the doors and decklid. Just so you have the full picture. Power supply in 0/1 with 4 guage distribution. Any recommendations?
OMG! I use rawhide as a backer for leather so it should work for sound deadener I don't know why I didn't think about that that's going to clean up my builds a lot. No more janky holes
grt video mark.
does adding a sound baffle to the speakers do any good to your audio performance?
please make a video on sound baffles and installation.
Tessa tape url is no longer available.
CAF how do you prevent a subwoofer box from moving around and the sound the trunk makes when you turn around a corner as the box makes sounds like wooden floors when you step on it.
I'd like to know where to get that big set of various sized hoops on the wall in back. I assume those are also used for tracing and making arc's as well? Thanks, Enjoy your videos!!!
the best base for hole punching is 10mm pvc sheet :p
I love the work you do and I'm curious...how much soundskins material would you use for a wagon style vehicle?
I have a 2005 dodge magnum and I'm trying to figure out how much I need. Should i just do the back and doors? Should i do all over, under the headliner included?
My plan is to eventually make the car an audio competition car.
Thanks for videos Mark! What material would you recommend for heat rejection under the roof liner? My car gets ridiculously hot.
Great videos......have you ever done a 2018 Honda Accord?.....sound system sucks. The highs will blow your ears out and the lows are almost none existent. What do you recommend?
Fantastic.
I have a lot of 3-5mm thick Armaflex material that I used for sound isolation on ventilation ducts. Would that be a good isolator for the car doors and trunk?
Is there tints that reduce noise?
Hey Mark, love your videos. I have a car that I want to do a basic audio upgrade in. I am not looking for earth shattering bass and I just want it to sound good, full and have some decent bass. Currently the car has 2 6.5" Dual speakers in the front (I know, they were cheap and the old ones were blown) and 2 Rockford Fosgate Prime 6x9 speakers in the rear deck. Right now the car has stupid amounts of bass coming from those 6x9s even with my cheap $40 Dual head unit. What upgrades do you recommend for a system like this? It is in a little Hyundai Elantra. I just want some decent bass that I can feel and that doesn't drown out everything else.
Hi Mark
What is your opinion on adding MLV like Second Skin Luxury Liner over a floor that is treated with Soundskins Pro. Soundskins has a thin layer of MLV already so is there a big improvement in adding in the thicker Second Skin product in addition?
Do you have a shop? Where?
I enjoy watching man, I'd love to help/learn and get my Veloster done, would you be interested in doing my car? Even if we had to do it in stages would be OK, I have 4 8" kicker 4ohm dvc subs already bought, that's all though. Everything else is needed though, I would like to do all speakers but the handsfree dash speaker. It might not be a good idea to put money into it though since the car will probably be taken once it's paid off.
I DID MY 2013 VELOSTER . ANY QUESTIONS U HAVE, HIT ME UP!
@@johnschoenrock8736 how did you deal with the sound processor thing? Did you replace the head unit or were you able to just replace the stock vehicle speakers and get better sound still using the sound processor?
I would need to know your system budget in order to give you sound advice.
Why are you yelling?
Make a complete deadening video, where you measure the noise level before and after
Why? Everyone knows this stuff works, and I have done this before. Im not sure why I have to prove sound treatment works in every single video where I talk about it.
Yes it does! I've completely sound deadened my doors with NVX stealth deadening and it makes a day and night difference. Obviously it's not as premium as sound skins pro but if you want the highest amount mid-bass and overall sound quality from your speakers and a huge difference in road noise sound deadening is the way to go.
CarAudioFabrication I would love to see a Soundskins Pro vs CLD+CCF+MLV approach. Oh, Soundskins Pro vs Second Skin (Damplifier + Luxury Liner Pro)! It would be awesome of the two companies hooked you up for a full car install and have two identical vehicles (time to get a vehicle manufacture sponsor Mark!) and do a measured side by side comparison. Hey, perhaps a team of representatives could come help you with the time consuming project to speed things up. Or, have each team vs each other and you dictate the exact areas of coverage and other details so it will be even. One can dream :)
Where did you get the arc and circle templates from? I've been looking all over for them.
Just buy a French curve ruler
Say mark I Installed a lc7i with two amps one for highs and mids and one for bass. When I connect the remote wire turn on for the amps coming from the lc7i to the amps there's a hissing sound no engine noise. But when I disconnect the bass amp remote wire it stops. I messed with everything and it's the remote coming from the lc7i. Any suggestions or am I going to have to buy a 5 channel amp. And all the power and ground are coming from the same source even replace the rcas. Any suggestions
Master!
I got to ask how do you prevent resonance with the body and the engine with your sound system? Several vehicles I'd find the frame resonance point and dang near shake the thing to pieces and found the resonance point of the engine and would screw with engine performance whenever I played songs with certain bass frequencies.
If you are concerned about shaking the car to pieces, don't install a system that is capable of shaking the car to pieces.
Needing a plate is enough
Oh Boy
Put your sound deadening on a quality router bit and end off with a face template for the perfect shape. Lol I'm just thinking of what Mark would say
Honestly, not a huge fan of sound skin.. It left horrible residue on windows because of the heat in Nebraska.
How?
What’s the best head unit in the game right now
Pioneer dex p99rs
There is no "best" for any gear. It depends on your application.
Pioneer Dex P99-RS if you love beautiful audio. It is amazing. there are other Pioneers if you like navigation and so forth, which I do not care about.
pioneer deh 80prs if you want close to the Dex P99 RS but not as expensive. incredibly good for the price.
Awesome
The clear eyes isn't working G ;). Love your work tho lol
It's way to much Money for soundskins I know ur sponsored by them but there prices R way to much
The top hole at 7:43 is screwed up. Do it over bro. Lol
