I've gotten a lot of help from this forum so hopefully this thread will help someone. So I no longer have access to a saw and am not that good at cutting wood in the first place. So I went on craigslist under the services section typed in carpenter and e-mail a few. I found a couple guys who would buy and cut a sheet of MDF for me for $25 + the cost of wood and I just have to go to there shop and pick it up, so I'm looking at about $50 for the wood and cutting and $10 for glue and screws. Now I will have all my wood precision cut and all I have to do is clamp it together and drill in some screws. You will need a drill and should have C-clamps but it could be done without. Anyways I just thought I would share this for anyone nervous about building there own box but want the performance of a custom box. If you think about it, it's also cheaper than most pre-fab boxes. You can carpet most boxes for $25 more. Here is a link to some carpet and a how to capet your box video.
