i got someone that has a table saw and everything, but i was just wondering if there was someone out there that will do it, if you want to design a box for me then thats a different story:naughty: , this one is for someone else.

All Home Depots should have MDF... MDF means Medium Density Fiberboard. So whatever you were looking at is probably it. And whoever told you they can't cut it for you was being a lazey prick, you have to pay $0.50 a cut but they are able to do it. Don't let them dick you around.

Yeah, ask Robin... the employees at the Home Depot down here are lazy pieces of shit... they don't want to help you with anything, and I've seen them RUN from someone trying to ask them a question.

i know what MDF is, maybe it came off that i didn't, but what they have there is not MDF, its a lower end fiberboard, it costs 8.00 per sheet of 2x4. they said that they couldn't cut it per specific dimensions, but they can cut it down to make it transportable, should i ask about the 50 cent per cut?

yeah, i don't want to screw up with a skillsaw seeing as how ive never had to use it to make exact cuts before. i used to work construction and what i had to cut was just sheets of plywood that had to be around a certain number of inches, not exactly.

Well MDF costs $8.00 for a 2 x 4 sheet here.... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

Did you look for a 4 x 8 sheet? Buying a bunch of smaller pieces is only going to cost more.

They DO have it, or they can get it if they happen to be out of it; ask questions and don't be an ignorant POS. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
