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.

I understand that feeling.  Got a cold though.  Exhausting.  Aargh I never get sick, better be gone by tomorrow since I am supposed to go up North on Friday.

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.

Slabs of wood?  No.

Crappies can be slabs.  You can have a slab of beef.  Not a slab of wood.

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.

Hope you finally get a good rip on that thing!

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?

Nearly.  6hr North of me is Canuckistan, I will probably kiss the border on the sled but the truck will only go 3.5hrs North.

I remember on the original Car Audio Resources (which we also own and I would like to get going again), in 2002 it was a big deal to have 5,000 posts.  Haha.

That looks like some stuff right there I'd throw in the old Mr.Coffee coffee pot and make some mud.

I would love to see that. I think you would be surprised at the out come.

CAF is almost dead.  Kind of sad as it was one of the originals.
