Well, I built a box that was 34 x 20 x 16 with a single sheet of MDF. (4ft. by 8ft)

will give you a cut sheet of what you need

The RE calc doesn't tell you how many sheets though, I think that's why he was posting here. He might not be good at math, or he may not trust his mathematical skill //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

Well I figured he didn't want to try and figure out what size each board was and hence couldn't figure out how many sheets he would need???

You can also grab cutsheet plus for free and that will give you the best way to use your sheet to get the most boards out of it as well...

1 sheet should do the trick...

That's no excuse at all. If you are bad with math, draw it on sketchup. If you know a sheet of MDF is 4' by 8', you can draw all your pieces onto it and see if it fits. No need for math at all.

Oh I never said that was a valid reason, I'm simply stating that is why I think he posted.
