talk to ryan he just added that to his business. he would cut the boards and design it and all you have to do is glue and screw.

ehh fuck it, i quit. somewhere along the line i realized that my sawhorses were slightly different in size (one was taller) and that was fucking me up, and then i couldn't find a way to clamp a straigh board down to my peice i was cut ting... anyway, some how i ended up getting really pissed. long storey short, theres a pile of scrap 2x4's and mdf in my backyard.. i sitll have a bunch of mdf left but im done fucking wit that shit.

so who can i pay to design the box and make the cuts and then ship it to me? anyone need some extra cash? :) (its either this or pay my local shop $150 or so to do it.

so i cut with a straight edge and i must say, it was beautiful!

but i have a question.. how do i factor in for my port? the box is going to be 30x15x15 overall, and the port will be 2" wide... so do i do i make my front peice 28x15?
2 30x15
2 30x13.5
2 13.5x13.5

this is whre i get confused in building my box.. and even a little pissed?

i have a jgisaw and a circular saw :D

but uh, what would you suggest using to `cut the circle? i was thinking the jigsaw, twas what we used last time.

by Ryan from Ohio » Fri Dec 23, 2005 4:09 am

Ummm you only have a jig saw and are trying to build a box?

I hope you mean circular saw...

I didnt know it was possible to make a box with a jig saw...lol No wonder nothing comes out straight. Them blades flex bad in MDF. I would look to a course blade and push very slowly...

i don't think i know what a panel saw is, but i probably won't buy one. the jigsaw was a big enough purchase for me :P. But i wish i could just rent a table saw for like 20 minutes.

i guess i'll rig something up tommorow and try using a straight edge, i may have to buy some more mdf though. (i might get paid tommorow though, because banks are closed on monday) I really wish i had a truck so i could buy 1 big sheet of mdf instead of fucking around with these 2'x4' sheets that cost $8.. where as i can get like a 5'x8' sheet for $20.

Yup the standard factory edge of MDF is pretty straigh. You can use them quick clamps and toss that circular on it and FLY across that wood.

Of course a Panel Saw is the shiznit for these projects...

by Darthness » Thu Dec 22, 2005 3:49 pm

fuck no.

i tried the straight edge back when i was sawing on my green plastic table, but that didn't work too well becaus ei couldn't clamp it down..

on the other hand thats not a shabby idea and i shall try tommorow, now that i have a slightly better workspace (plastic table to sawhorses.. huge improvement.)

by Ryan from Ohio » Thu Dec 22, 2005 3:42 pm

Ever hear of a "straight edge" and clamps?

;)

by Darthness » Thu Dec 22, 2005 3:10 pm

gotta wait for my dad's help, i can't afford to waiste any more money and mdf... i did get my saw horses built today.

i can't cut for shit.
