wen u stacked all those corner triangle pieces how did u cover the sheet around them.. did u actually take the pieces back down and then cover them? or wat ha iono? can u explain plz

and is that pretty much considered a superchunk? ha

DrestaDude ..

Yeah...those are superchunks. I think they call em that cuz they fill the corner as opposed to straddling across it.

As to covering em....I cut and stacked em...cut my fabric to where it was about one inch longer and wider than the triangles all stacked up, had my wife hold it smooth and in place then nailed up some finishing trim around the edges. The reason for me...for the one inch wider was cuz I had one inch trim for it. So the edge of the fabric pretty much lined up with the outside edge of the trim.
Dats about it. Simple but time consuming so have beer on hand.

No problem dude...The only ones I built were the super chunks. The two new ones on the ceiling are from GIK Acoustics and the other four are from another dude I can't remember who went outta bidness awhile back.
I'm pretty good at makin stuff tough...that'll last...but not very good at makin it look nice.


Do a search of DIY bass traps. Quite a few dudes around here and all over the web have done em and they look good too. Unlike mine would.

Luck mang...
