    Has anyone built an enclosure for the Novakon NM-135? I would like to see pics and get an idea on what you guys are using.

    Not yet. Soon though, cuz my place is a bloody mess. Thinking of plywood bottom, Al angles, *something* for walls&roof, Lexan door, and bent-up sheet Al to line the bottom and direct the coolant to the drain.
    Ideally it'd reduce the noise too.

    Any ideas?

    I was thinking of powdercoat or maybe the truck bed lining stuff in the bottom. It might be a good idea to go with the lining stuff that way you could get the sides and top sprayed as well.

    How dat enclosure coming along?

    After looking at alot of pictures, I'm leaning towards lexan + "80/20"-ish framing - more expensive, possibly less effort, arguably better looking. Although noise damping is a priority for me, so I'd still like to line the inside with something for noise.
