[QUOTE="req, post: 738219, member: 555713"] good box build for sure, just too bad thats not MDF, its is the little cousin - particle board. if that thing gets a DROP of water on it. say goodbye. dont ever put screws in WITHOUT pre-drilling, or they are comming out. MDF is WAY denser, and has WICKED small particles. particle board is ALOT more porus, and uses bigger chunks of sawdust. i dont know how bad it will be for flexing\breaking. but be warned... that box is made of not-the-best material... but looks promising. let us know how it turns out. im not saying that your box is bad or anyhting, just giving you the heads up - next time look for Medium Density Fiberboard, not just Fiberboard, or Particle board. MDF - medium density fiberboard (best) [IMG]http://www.surlinx.com/MDF-Clear.jpg[/IMG] particle board, pressboard, fiberboard (not the best) [IMG]http://woodmagic.forprod.vt.edu/Kids/Products/img/particle2.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
