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...

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?

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.

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.
