Autruche Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Could do it the other way, with the bolt head in the box, and the nuts/lockwashers and whatnot on the outside, sink bolt heads into wood. You could countersink the bolt heads and washers into the wood easier than the nuts and leftover thread. Quote Need Test Tones/Sine Waves?

You could countersink the bolt heads and washers into the wood easier than the nuts and leftover thread. for the side walls i would be doing it like that bolt head inside the box and nut outside where i can get to them from outside for the top/bottoms i'm thinking having the bolts going from the top and countersinking nuts from bottom side under the wood i really wont have to use to many bolts to secure the wood if i were to use only 9 bolts 3 rows of 3 i should be able to keep the wood up to allow glue to dry Quote R.I.P!

Autruche Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Yeah, that's true, I forgot about the top and bottoms. Then again you could weld nuts on the frames top and bottom and still do the bolts from the inside, just have to put the lock washers on the inside of the box too. Quote Need Test Tones/Sine Waves?

dwright27 Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 At least for the first layer, then use screws and glue for the layers after that.

uhoh_45 Posted June 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I would use carriage bolts and lock washers. fuck didnt even think of carriage bolts on the side walls would work great but not so much for top and bottom/ back it would be a bitch to do Quote R.I.P!

dwright27 Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Use carriage bolts for sides, and hex head nuts on the tops and bottoms. Regardless, steel isn't cheap, might as well get a good bolt setup going ya know? Quote 2006 F-150 4 DC XL M2 18's Walled Daily Driver XS Power 4 DC 3.5kw Team DC Team S.P.L.
