new box for SE 3/5 @34 *pics*

Bro, I'm just saying that if I were selling boxes, I would want to have the work that I post to be top notch. Saying that it was done in haste isn't really an excuse because if you do your OWN work by rushing, who knows what customer's products look like? Just a fellow business suggestion.

Read the posts. It was mostly my friends build. It is HIS BOX, NOT MINE. He built it the way he wanted it. I gave him tips and pointers on his plans and everything, but followed the way he wanted things done. I'm not gonna make a box for the kid, he wants to be proud of HIS work, not mine.

btw, ill post pics of MY box in a couple weeks so you can bullshit some more.

I really don't know why you're getting so bent out of shape about it. I'm trying to help you make more money, but you're *****ing about it? Re-think your tactics when dealing with people that are trying to help you.

And you build boxes? I would never show something that looked that bad. Screw sticking out of the baffle?

hmm idk why I might be a little hostile.... any help from the audience?

That to me was NOT trying to help.

Is this a business banner? nope. Like I said 20x it was for my friend, made by my friend. I was there helping him out, he wasnt helping me.

Don't worry, lemans always loves to degrade other people and their boxes.

Lemans, just shut up already. Nobody cares about how fantabulously spectacular your boxes look.

Every god d*mn box thread, you always say the same shit. Give it a rest already.

I don't degrade other people, I say what I'm thinking whether it be blunt or praise. Only way to do anything in life frankly. If I come off as mean or harsh, so be it, but you'll always know what I'm thinking when I say it. I also think that I have the right to say it since people do the same to me as well. If they hadn't, I wouldn't be making money //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif.

So I apologize if I offended you, bluntness is something you will have to expect from me. No sugar coating. And you should also look what happened. I told JordanTyler what was going on with her box, she took some advice and it turned out nice. Whether or not I was mean in doing so isn't really my problem, what is important is that you speak your mind. If someone has criticism about me, then say it. I won't cower and be offended, I make it a point to show that person up the next time around.

It's not that help isnt appreciated, it's just that come off as a bit condescending and arrogant. You could say something like "hey, you might want to watch those screw heads" or "could use a little polishing around the edges"

Instead you say things like (not exactly quoting) "i would never sell anything that looked like THAT", or "man, that looks like crap"

You just have the wrong tone IMO.

the thing im most pissed about is that youre making it come as I built the whole thing by myself and I am representing my own work....it is not my box. haha I understand that it may not look the prettiest or have the best craftsmanship in it, but it is my buddys box, and he built it so he can take pride in something of his own.

Okay, I'm trying something new. It's called moderation. Let's see how it works.

First up, I wouldn't remove those screws in the baffle. I'd take a grinding wheel bit on a dremel and cut them off. Second, how are you finishing it? I hope that you aren't going to use paint, and if you are, I hope that you didn't use silicone on the outside as paint doesn't bond to rubber.

I say that because...

No silicone on the outside is what saved these, and I knew that going into it. It didn't help that the wood was literally SCRAP wood that I used for practicing routering and painting on, but just the same. Next post shows how they turned out.
