Is there anything wrong with this idea (bracing)

[Based]

Ok before I go and **** up my box I'm gonna ask y'all first. I wanna brace my box and I've done the wooden dowel rod thing with glue but for whatever reason the face of the box still flexes at max volume. The brace did help a whole lot, like it would flex at less than 3/4 and now it doesn't flex until max volume, but I want something stronger and more reliable than glue.

I'm thinking of putting 3/4 threaded rod through the face and through each side. My only concern is how much air space will this take up and will all these rods cause unloading problems or air travel problems. Thanks.

The area of a .75 rod is .44 so if the rod is 16" long this would be .004ft^3.

oh ok so basically it doesn't take up any airspace (or anything noticeable at least). thanks.
