[QUOTE="I Like Waffle, post: 5628339, member: 600248"] This is my second box. A little more complicated than my first one as this has an angled face and this ones actually made out of 1 inch MDF rather than 3/4 particle board [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif[/IMG] And i must say for what ive done so far, it wasnt nearly as hard or as much of a pain in my *** as i thought it was gonna be, actually kinda fun. This box is 5.2 cubes net for my 2 MA audio 150xe 15"s, sealed. Heres my original plans : [IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/zo9tfc.jpg[/IMG] I went to Home Depot and got one sheet of 1 inch MDF which was like 30$, then some clamps, glue, and etc. Ended up being 50$ or so all together. I got the wood cutter dude to cut all my boards to spec except for the side panels which i knew id have to cut myself once i got all the angles and such done. Ive got a little problem so far but its no biggie i guess, But theres a small gap at the bottom on one side where the angled face is gonna mount. I bought some wood filler so when i get it together and glued and screwed and everything ill wood fill the the crack and leak test it to make sure its sealed good. Bottom piece - 20x48 Back piece - 14x48 Top piece - 14x48 Angled face - 18x48 Side pieces - 30x24 Also went to wal mart and got some polyfelt and 3m spray adhesive to wrap the box with. Was like 7$ for a piece that was 72x112 [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] Heres what i got done today, worked on it for about 2 hours and im almost done. Oh and btw ive never used these clamps before, and let me say, wood clamps FTMFW [IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/34jchue.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/1jav6r.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i43.tinypic.com/otqand.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/166j8rp.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
