who has built a PERFECT box before?

[IgnoreMe 5,000+ posts]

i have never built a perfect box before. using a circular saw, i have always been off by a bit, and the sides have never been perfectly lined up.

has anyone, WITHOUT a tablesaw, ever build an absolutely perfect box?

do i just **** at life? should i start smoking again?

this thread came to mind, because once again....1 wall was off by 1/8" and another sloped down 1/16" or so from a perfect other side of my back piece.

should i commit suicide?

After my 4th box with a circular saw, I'm convinced it's not possible to get it perfect without a table saw.

Even with a table saw you wont get the perfect cut. The last box I made, I had my uncle who is a carpenter for something like 30 years cut the wood on a table saw. It was **** close but you can still find flaws.

But I guess to the normal eye its about as perfect as it will get.

4 hours of sanding I've made the box perfect //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

NEVER have homedepot cut your wood, built a box this weekend for a friend and he had wood cut by home depot. The sides were off by a 1/4"....HUGE gap in the port walls...lots of silicone had to fix that.

Now with a table saw and a good person making the cuts, you can make a perfect box pretty easily.

I use a table saw to build my boxes. I'll have to get a pic up tomorrow of a box that I recently built for myself.
