This isn't the best but here's my first ever attempt at building a box. Continuing from my other 2 thread up to now

Okay. So I'm sort of done gluing the majority of the box. Sad thing is, I've no jigsaw to cut out the subwoofer wholes :( Anyone have any idea on how I can cut them out sans jigsaw? BTW, here are some pics. Sorry for quality, used my cell to take the pics.

Home Depot has this big ass machine they use to cut the 48x97 MDF, word.

He kind of fucked up the edge by not cutting past said specs :(

After some glue

Where do I go from here? No idea. I need to cut out the wholes for the subs and a whole or 2 for the wires. I hate being stuck like this. Wish I could go and buy a jigsaw but I've got no loot. More to come.

Gah why do people always quote a whole post worth of pictures then add 1 line to the bottom @___@

You need either a jigsaw or a router to make the sub holes, Jigsaw being the cheaper and easier option. I've seen people try other ways and it ALWAYS ends badly.

Badly as in looks like shit, works like shit, sounds like shit.

Think drilling 200 holes in your baffle then hammering the middle out then trying to file/sand the lumps flat.
