box 99% finished *pic*

Nice job so far.

I remember the first time my friend and I built a box for his car. We had all the tools except for a table saw to make the cuts. The last thing we wanted was to have Home Depot cut it because I know they do crap cuts. My other friend was being a debbie-downer and wouldn't let us borrow his table saw so we just said "F*** it! How bad can Home Depot mess up simple straight cuts?"

Well, Stan (Jamaican guy who cut our pieces) did a horrible job. No exaggeration, he was 1/4" off on almost all the sides. We couldn't refund because the cuts were made already. When we got home we're like "Maybe it'll still go together flush..."

We tried it and there were huge gaps everywhere.

We ended up buying a Dewalt table saw at Sears using my friends credit card. And then we started the project all over again from scratch. This time we cut the stuff properly and it was smooth sailing from there. Man that was a nightmare.

Anyway, finish it up and post some pics!
