Yesterday, my local carpenter (a very skilled guy) delivered my latest projects, and much to my surprise, everything was wrong - the size of the holes, the depth of them, and he had blown two of the drivers he took. Apparently, he used them as templates, and even the holes he cut look ragged! Plus, the cost was higher than if I had ordered the stuff from Parts Express to Mexico!
:E
So, I've decided I want to learn how to build the boxes myself. I'll have him do the finish (he does excellent work, much better than anything I could achieve).
If someone knows of a guide that can help me get started (what kind of equipment I need, how to use it!), I'll be very grateful.
I'll order a Jasper Jig from Parts Express, or a Router Buddy (which one is better?), and start from there. I know I need a router, but don't have a clue as to what to buy. I know I need to get the cheapest stuff out there, since prices in here are by far higher than in the States. But hey, at least we have a Home Depot!
