same here in San Diego.

err, yes it does. theres a sign up at Home Depot and Lowes here. maybe its just a SC law. They can only cut it in half to fit in your car.

Nowhere does it say anything about precision cuts... But likewise it doesnt give any accuracy. I go into it full knowingly that they may be 1/16" ff- which is acceptable for most carpentry work.

You can buy kits on E Bay for a panel saw for cheap. Add you 10" circular saw and your set.

Otherwise get buddy buddy with a person at Lowes or Home Depot ;)

One time I "dropped" a $10 on the floor for the guy. Hey, I figure the time saved is easily worth the extra $10...

haha bullshit. He just didn't want to take the time to cut it for you.

werd

A box using a 4x8 sheet of MDF costs under $30 in materials. The price you see people charge is in labor...

Tip of the day

here is a tip for day:

You can do as much customizing to your stereo system as your mind will let you. If you have the will power and creativity to do custom installs you really dont need talent. If you think of some crazy ass fiberglass box and you would like to try it then do it. it dosnt matter if you knopw how or not there are many skilled people on this forum that will try and help you through any stereo project you can think of. there are alot of stereos that are done by people that just do it for the money but some you will see all the passion that went into making every little piece and thats what your stuff will have. You gotta love what your doing. and if you try making a box and it dosnt turn out who cares its the cheapest education youll ever recieve and you can always use the pratice. so if you have just a little bit of will to try and get into car stereos and custom work give it a shot it might be something you love.
