Default exhaust box?

I bought a 'new to me' 98 RoadGlide. Yea Me! It's got a two into one white brothers pipe on it that sounds great! So great that my wife and unfortunately my neighbors hate it So I'm thinking of building some kind of sound deadening box that I can back the bike up to. My goal is to be able to start and idle the bike for a few minutes before taking off for the day. I'm thinking maybe 18 x 18 box with a 4 or 6 inch hole that would line up with the muffler when on the jiffy stand.
Any suggestions?
think it could work, or am I just gonna waste $40 in materials? LOL

Thanks,
Jim
