Check this out let me clear up the statement I posted right before this. I used the card board with 7 layers of glass that is how it is so hard like MDF. the box is so strong I can stand on it and it doesn't flex. I weigh 220 lbs. if that clears any thing up for everyone with doubts.

That's coming along nicely. Can't wait to see the finished project.

Why do you ask if I ate paint chips when I was younger?

thanks. I am going to start sanding it tomorrow if it doesn't rain. I don't have a garage and my shed is to small that is why it takes me so long to work on things. any ways thanks for the complimants.
