Cutlist :
2 - 30 x 30
2 - 30 x 13 1/2
2 - 28 1/2 x 13 1/2

That's a fairly large box, by the way.

i belive its around 3.1 or 3.2cu ft.... after port displacement and such it'll be closer to what JL reccomends (2.625 cuft). and by JL's WxHxD it actually turns out to be around 3.3cu ft
edit: i just realized i said 30x30x15.. it should be 30x15x15 sorry (damn pills) im going to assume it should be 2 30x15's instead of 30x30
i need help becasuse im having trouble visualizing the box in my head. maybe its the percocets ive been taking (had my wisdom teeth yanked monday)

i bought sawhorses today though and tommorow im going to start the box if i can get the 2x4s'. fuckin lowes had no people in the lumber area to cut it down to fit in my car.

Ever hear of a "straight edge" and clamps?

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.)

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...

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.
