then after that is dry, i make the skeleton over that, and then mat on the inside and the seam where the two pieces meet?

how do i go about leaving a hole for the back of the speaker to fit through, when i'm matting the bottom?


my main confusion isn't on how the skeleton/speaker part is going to be done, but how i'm going to affix the bolts into the setup, so the entire assembly can be removed, if need be. If i'm covering the outside, and wrapping around, i'd think the threads on the bolts would be covered. but if i mat in two halves, i don't know how i'm leaving a space for the speaker.... if any of that makes sense. Its gotta be something stupid that my brain just isn't putting in proper order.

although i did just see on a site, that after the original cloth was resin'd they drilled holes where the bolts go, and recessed them in.. then matted over that. that... doesn't seem right. how would you fill the recessed holes where the bolt heads are?
