I could have had it a few inches deeper but I need some trunk space lol.

Nice job btw.

I see you have a titebond II bottle, how does that compare to III?

Looking good on the build though, also the nails/brads what size do you use and do you find that it easily pulls panels together like screws?

the only difference between the titebond II and III is that III is waterproof. in the case of box building, if the joint is exposed to water the mdf will fail anyway so its not necessary lol. i use 2" 18 guage brads. they dont pull the mdf together, you have to apply the pressure first then nail it and it wont come apart. its much faster than screws.

well it ended up that i cut the box to the wrong width for some reason //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif i cut it to 36 wide instead of 28 lol. i have no idea how i messed that up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif but i cut it down to the right size and were good to go now.

Nowhere near enough port...

no the length would have been too long

He should buy a second 4'' and run both external to get the port/internal space he needs......

 

[gboo559 10+ year member]

Well I'll see how it works out. If it needs to be changed I know someone near me that could help.

Does it really have 12 sq. In. Of port?

I couldn't do external cause it wouldn't fit in my trunk. The end of the port would be facing a wall with like 1/2" in between. I already talked to twisted he's gonna redo it with 2 internal 4" aeros. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif Any idea how much port area that is?
