Razz,

Thanks for that link. It gave me some more ideas, and some info. I'll keep referencing it!

Lee and Spharis,

I was going to make a mdf and plexi. The reason being some plexi is I want a bit of bling, aka some led and neon lights in it to show it off. I'm toying with the idea of entering some sound offs, so figured a little bling never hurt. It won't be nearly as big as grants, but just a bit. I think What I may just do it measure it really good, and just have lowes/homedepot cut it. Then I'll make a lip in the mdf and have it countersunk in, make sense?

Cutting plexi sucks. Is there a reason you want plexi?

Will it be all plexi or some wood? On the plexi you will need a sharp bit and go slow or the plexi will start to melt.

Anyone ever done this? I want to make a split MDF plexiglass box and was wondering if anyone has done this and give me some advice before I dive in. I want to make the box myself, but just thinking about having someone do it, but that gets $$ I wanna make it myself, so I can also add some led's/neon to bling factor it, since I'm thinking about doing some sound comps.

Thanks in advance.

Plexi-how do you cut it, or is it something to just have someone cut?
