lmao depends on the table saw lmao. he charged me 100 but i have lately not been cutting too well. im looking at possibly building boxes locally with a different carpenter. get him so extra cash after hours, and some for me as well. i have a table saw and HATE IT. also have a circular saw and fence and HATE IT. all in all, this box should last quite a while.

how do u know this is straight on your wood though? thats my problem, i dont know if all my edges are 90 degrees when i cut. i measure and measure and measure, but never know till i piece together. i want assurance that its a right angle....................being a table saw with a good fence. ya know what im sayin? how does this tool do that?

even with a panel saw it could be off, you just gotta hope and pray that the sheets are squared up when cut the first time.


i use to work for a shop that had a panel saw, I loved making boxes, now its too tedious for me lol

well if it will clamp the edge and lock at 90 degrees and not wobble it may be worth the money, a table saw is not gaurunteed a 90* angle either.

ganahl lumber cuts it for free for me LOL and i go their 1-2 times a week for a box. but not everytime do they cut it perfect. so for a perfect cuts 100$ sounds perfect but next time you might want to hit up the guy from realmofexcursion i think he has access to a cnc machine and will probably charge you cheaper or about the same for cnc cuts!

That box looks real good. Looks like a prefab kit [Eek!] (Just add glue and clamps and voila)

Nice design!! That thing should pound in that Mustang.

thanks for all the compliments guys. im not sanding it as nothing will show when its done so why waste that energy. it will be false-walled trunk and seat side, so no air goes into the trunk, and i have somewhere to throw my amp. guess i gotta flip that eD badge around to read correctly. other than that, its juuuussttttt about to go in.
