[QUOTE="Jeffro83, post: 8618837, member: 674133"] Man im so pizzed when I was attaching the baffle I tacked it with a few Brad's but the Brad's were only 2 inch so didn't want to use those all the way around just didn't seem like enough nail biting into the wood so I had some two and a half inch trim screws laying around and figured I'd just pre-drill and then use the trim screws to attach the baffle once the glue dries won't matter anyway what I didn't see was that even with pre-drilling the screws were still swelling the would slightly or possibly splitting it but I'm not sure all I know is that when you run your hand along the edges where the baffle attached you can feel a hump where every screw is and I put a screw about every 4 to 6 in oh well I guess lesson learned next time I will be rebuilding with Birch and I will just get longer Brad's still ***** though cuz it was coming out so nice hopefully it doesn't weaken the box to the point that it falls right apart I don't think it will though still seems pretty strong and honestly once it's Rhino lined you probably won't see it anyway still just really annoying to have that happen right at the end [/QUOTE]
