yes MDF is medium density fiberboard.
it's a composite manufactured wood that runs about $23 for a 4'x9' sheet at any home improvement store.

we have a really good thread on how to build a fiberglass box, and if you have trouble with a fiberglass box cracking then you must be doing something wrong. here is the link for the fiberglass box building http://www.caraudiocentral.net/forums/s ... php?t=1516

That how to is good up until the end. It does an excellent step by step with pictures, which is great, but then it just finsihes with a paragraph and no pictures. The last paragraph has too many steps to leave as one apragraph. it should be more spread out with pictures.

Sounds good! I think it will be an excellent tutorial once it's finished, and will make it so even the newest person can handle it.
