so i never really work with wood much other than 2 years in high school (craftsmanship 1 & 2) i know the basics but i got a few questions that maybe some of you can answer! first things first! this is a 97 jimmy truck is GUTTED! not back seats (front seats are out right now) all factory carpet and insulation is gone all trim pieces are out 100sq feet of FatMat is laid on the floor from fire wall to rear trunk latch lol my main question is: should i carpet the floor first, or build a false floor and carpet after? the box is going to be 51" x 37"x 25" and will be carpeted aswell and bolted down to the false floor with L brackets and possibly threaded rods through the bottom if i need to get pics/video i will so its a little easier to understand what im asking! materials i have on hand: 3 sheets of 1/2 MDF (2feet by 4 feet) 2 2x10s some liquid nails a box of screws (cant remember what i used them for but they should work) 20 or so 1 1/2 self tapping screws jig saw 18v drill 120 volt drill 4in angle grinder /w cutting wheels lol i think thats all but just to get an ideal of what i have if i dont get many opinions or advise ill just wing it
