Not looking bad but you do not need that many screws. You can do more than 1 piece a day. Does not need to clamp that long.

I built that hole box in 1 day well as you see..i'm using my iphone my mom took my camara on vacation she'l be back tomrow morning and i'l have better pictures...any more imput all the sides will be sealed and dubble glued and i dunno why i use so many screws i guess its my own box im using so i want it to be done right

Well that many screws is actually bad for the boxes structural integrity. Also once you clamp the boards and then screw them there is not longer any need for the clamp.

the clamps are only a extra pair of hands to hold the boards because this box is so big i need some help so the clamps just hold it when i drill

i know clean the glue....i don't wanta f*ck with the box and flip it over for the night cuz i did that all in one night and it needs to set

Nice clamps.

I have some of both of those types.

I also use a space heater to help dry everything when i build in the garage in weather like this.

FYI, if you don't have a shit ton of box clamps, just use SCREWS and you can do it in one day... just drill pilot holes.
