    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    I need some general help boys. If you want me to start a question based thread elsewhere, I will. I have 3 longs sides glued tight. That last sheet of MDF was a Bitch and not perfect. I think I lost a few mm in warp. I had it leaning like a dumb ass. Oh well, loose a tonail and learn new cussing and move on. What I need to know is if there is a problem with putting the Moofer on the longer planes of this box or if I should put it on the end. I really want to mount these vertically, and it would be nice to watch the moofer do it's moofing. Maybe I'll make a "wanging" vidjeo if that's is still cool. Also, does it matter if the moofer is close to one side of the enclosure, or should I aim for dead center if possible. I need to know before I go crazy with the bracing. Also, I have a weird idea I was toying with a while back. Does exterior bracing help much? As in not a whole sheet, but maybe edge to edge panels glued to the walls on the outside and not inside. The idiot in me says it should help as long as I make sure to focus on the most vulnerable parts. Thanks so much gents, I really appreciate all the help yall give me. This would be a nightmare without this site.

    As for the south, I definately understand the speech. If I am with my family from Georgia it's all "truuuue" "what kind of cokes y'all want from the store" They know how the fuck to cook though. Also dig some deep South muzak.

    I used to be. Dead art for the most part unless you can be without that applianc/tool for a good amount of time. Front loaders are better. And if you spend a couple bucks will pay for the cost increase. Even if you don't care that much aboiut your clothes.

    Holy shit balls. Canvas stretched.... sort of..... It's going to need to be adjusted. Holy shit. Don't buy pre primed. But painters medium canvas if you want cotton. Thought I would save time and have. Smoother texture. Nope. NOPE! It was like stretching the drop cloth from a guiness book record setting bukake all day event. Crunchy AF. So many staples... and I still needed to gesso it a bit more and I wanted white not grey. Hopefully cutting these boards is easier.

    Beautiful. What joiner did you use again? I like how you want for girth instead of length. Ladies appreciate it as much as @mikel7829.

    Lol Fair enough. I've never made a large box with MDF before, is it always so prone to bowing? Every panel needed nudging. Today's panel was the worst. I shouldn't have tried to do it alone at less than 100% Does the weight provide any benefit, or is it just about cost savings?

    Is there enough snow up north for some fun Sean? Hope you finally get a good rip on that thing!

    Yeah, sniffles first thing. I haven't felt warm yet today and I turned the heat waaaaay up. I really want a hot tub right about meow. Bath will feel good tonight, even though I have to pick legs or torso.

    Going to do some measure once cut twice math. I have 2 slabs of MDF the right width already from when I was originally going to port these big refrigerator boxes.

    I can't hear you over my throbbing foot. Lol Just kidding, thankfully foot is ok. No I didn't. I now have the 3 long sides on the 16 cube boxes done. Got my camera charged up and figured out some lighting so I can post some picks for y'all later. Today I had some administrative work to do, and I'm so tired I don't want to work a saw. Just working on smaller stuff.

    @mikel7829 Already got karma biting at me for talking shit about safety. Just as I was sliding one of these pipe clamps, the other one fell on my foot. I was prepared though and had my safety sandals on. Birkenstock Arizona keratin toe. One of the best multi layer composite materials ever, and it's self healing. Had a nice woolen insulative layer too. Safe-t first!

    Safety is only for those who want to keep workin'.

    I'm off almost all of the go fast juice now. That's why I want an easy way to get coffee in me. Only got 4 hours last night as I had to get up early for a courier, then couldn't fall back asleep. I am worthless today, can't find the energy to watch TV and cant fall asleep.

    This is pretty much the only canned carbonated stimulant I drink now. Knock back a pair of these for a good day of work, 4-6 a day if it's a sale weekend. 16 hour days can get to a man.

    So, for giggles I splashed that old titebond 3 on the joints of the canvas frame I put together. No clamps, just the pressure from the hotdog down a hallway "miter" or whatever you call those kind of joints. One brass brad into the grain to get a little more pressure. I cannot pull it apart. The wood was going to break first. Hooray for old AF glue!

    When I'm working again I will probably be more into this. I should have before, but grabbing coffee on the go was better for me after doing the math. I was away from home minimum of 60 hours a week, and near the end not even in my same office. Google the closest Dunn and just smash it.
