    I just took apart my built box and I have a bunch of MDF splits. I predrilled the holes, but the drill bit i used was too small for the drywall screws. Also i have a bunch of unwanted holes in the box. What do i do? Is there a fix, or should i buy new MDF? What screws/drill bit combination...

    wow, nice ill be finishing my box next weekend hopefully. Also, does anyone know what is the correct drill size for drywall screws? I think the one i was using might be too small? Once I get the Box Glued what do i fill all the screw holes i have made? Thanks for all the info.

    just glue would hold the box together strong? I thought a combination of screws and glue would do it better?it kind of sucks because i have to remove the liquid nails now. Should i use liquid nails to seal the seams? Any suggestions?

    I have not tried it out, yet. The box is still in the making, waiting on carpet and a free day from work/school. I might have to add glue to the joints now because i skipped that step. Another thing do you guys think it would be okay for the screws to be take out at this point to add glue? What...

    I have a question, is it okay not to use glue? I Predrilled my holes, used 2" fine drywall screws, cocked the seams with liquid nails for wood. I didn't add glue inbetween the joints, just liquid nails to make it air tight. I also did screws every 5-5 inches.

    no, i think urs is screwd up or something. Mines is good, i have had horrible experiences with b&d, but this thing is good. I like the idea of variable speed, you can turn the speed down for accuracy when your taking corners.
