As you can see I had to add the corner pieces to get a nice edge around for the material that I have put around it. Then I am putting molding over the areas where the tacks are. I will post finished pics of one hopefully tommorow. It will look much better than what you see in those pics.

Looks good! But what do you do when they are full with all the bass they have trapped? Is there some kind of compartement you can take out and free the bass? ;\)

A question, out of curiousity: Batts of insulation(in a home) only work when layed down in the "flat" direction, this ensures that it traps air pockets within itself and blocks out either heat or cold on it's surface. Now if you turn that batt and use it sideways, it will not insulate the cold or hot out because the layers or pockets are exposed on the sides and will actually conduct the temperature through itself. So I'm wondering if the way you lay your material down in a bass trap has any influence on the way it works, flat vs sideways.
