1/2 or 3/4

stick w/ 3/4" all the way. Why 3/4" external and 1/2" for ports? wtf? each and every piece of the box will be as important as the other.

speaking if MDF. Stupid mother****ers @ home depot cannot cut for shit. 2nd ****ign time they messed up a cut. Even just by 1/4". I even told ******* to double check. it's a **** shame to have a marvelous saw like that and have messed up cuts!

to stay on topic: 3/4 will provide you with more durability than 1/2 and also less flex. 1/4" is a big difference in mass when it comes to MDF.

Dont ever let them cut shit for you, they will **** it up for you.

it's like they do it on purpose...! I asked for 2 cuts of 24" vertical... one was on the money, the other was 23.75". That just fvcked two pieces i have planned for that piece. also, i have them cut it because I cannot fit that slab in my camry... next time i'll tell them to cut 1 inch more than what i need. bastards.

i don't know ,i was thinking that because im going to make a box that is36---20 3/4----13.5

did you mean 36"x 20 3/4" x 13.5" .

if you mix 3/4 and 1/2", it'll be harder to design your box.

How much of a difference would it be between 3/4" Braced and 1" Braced?

1/4" difference. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Use 3/4" MDF or bigger. No more questions.

They dont guarantee their cuts, they only really cut it for ease of transport, not so you can go home and glue it together perfectly... cmon now, a jigsaw isnt too expensive... (yes I used to make entire boxes with one)
