Mach 5 MAW 15 Box done *PICS*

im not one who really likes to be negative but its just one of those days... That box looks like shit and i wouldnt of posted it if i were you. sorry, im sure your a nice guy and all but maybe another crack at the box making... having a nice large shop and lots of tools like that i would expect allot better quality. I'm really trying not to be a dick but come on...

Eh there are gonna be haters as well as fans. IMO in looks decent, not as good as i wanted but it will look better when I cover it. Care to explain why it looks bad rather than just giving a general " oh its a POS for no apparent reason" ?

I agree. Are four table saws enough? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
Looks like an interesting project.
Maybe he'll give one to me...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

 
like i said im not trying to be a dick but since you asked, half rounded corners and half not ? i understand that some pieces touch plexi with 90 degree angles but you can sand plexi to come closer to matching then it does... also wayyyyy too much calking, half the screws look like they were countersunk and half dont with un filled holes. The paint actually looks more like vehicle under liner.... etc... not enough coats on the ports and we can see wood through... leds in boxes ****... your pieces of wood arent aligned well although better then lots we see around here you could of sanded and filled the edges to look uniform... it looks like a really amature wood working and car audio job on a basic box... when someone has those kind of resources i would expect much better quality... like i said sorry if im being a dick... i would imagine with that kind of shop you are capable of some decent carpentry and that box doesnt look like the quality i would expect from anyone who has done a decent amount of wood working in their past.

It is actually only the second box I have built. It is not completely done yet. I still have some sanding and a coat of paint left to go. I will be filling the screw holes so they will not show. I have only had access to this shop for the past few weeks so I am just now starting out doing carpentry. I appreciate the pointers and will try to work those out next time I build a box.
