two things i noticed off the bat, box height is 14" and port height is 14". that cannot be. if box height is 14", then if you were using .75" wood, the port height can only be 12.5". if that is how the port was going to be lined up however. also...a height of 14" and a width of .5" is WAAAAAAAAY too thin. i hope that was a typo lol
