<h3>
DIRECTIONS</h3>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h4>
1. SAW SHIT</h4>
Cut wood to size using saw. I used a saw such as this<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFYCQS2IrhiGs8Ev8d-is261eBuAWC3H0ADGPrAGTaEdOajUoi36gXpSyX3CHTF_JVciXHGTwKdZL-V9t8eiJ54CBCbsMylcrXimd0FIUi5zUPZd2AD-3fyZcuE3RNm1txl7QZgHSrCi0/s1600/Wood%2520Saw.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="237" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFYCQS2IrhiGs8Ev8d-is261eBuAWC3H0ADGPrAGTaEdOajUoi36gXpSyX3CHTF_JVciXHGTwKdZL-V9t8eiJ54CBCbsMylcrXimd0FIUi5zUPZd2AD-3fyZcuE3RNm1txl7QZgHSrCi0/s320/Wood%2520Saw.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I measured the wood many times before cutting to be as accurate as possible with such a tool. The dimensions I used were 9in X 7in X 5in, taking into account the thickness of the wood, the final dimensions of the box were, 9in X 7.5in X 5in</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h4>
2. GLUE SHIT</h4>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The next thing I had to do was glue all the wood together. Gorilla glue (a foaming polyurethane glue) was used because of its strength and ease of use. Be wary of its foaming characteristic before use. Before gluing two pieces, it is recommended to wipe a slightly damp paper towel on the wood. Water acts as a catalyst for gorilla glue. You will notice that a spot of glue with water mixed in it will foam much more than one without. The glue dries in no more than 30 minutes and is extremely strong.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h4>
3. PUT A LID ON DAT SHIT</h4>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once you have the box glued together you need to make the lid, I used one piece that fit perfectly in the box, and one that rested perfectly over the edges and glued them together. This provides a tight seal with no need for screws. The lid was veneered with patina copper using gorilla glue. A hole was then drilled and a push button was screwed in.</div>

<h4>
4. CUT HOLES</h4>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The next thing you need is holes for your speakers! I used a hole saw because it is easy, very easy. You can see the holes in the picture below</div>
<div>

</tbody></table>
<h4>
5. PUT DEM SPEAKERS IN</h4>
<div>
Hopefully you cut the holes right! Good thing you measured twice! Slide those speakers in. I decided to mount the speakers on the inside for durability and looks. It might change the sound, but I tried mounting them inside and out and noticed no difference listening to the same tracks carefully. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
One advantage of mounting the speakers inside is that they are much more protected from being poked and scratched. </div>
<div>

<h4>
6.CUT DA LEATHER BRUDDAH</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I spent some time thinking about how to cut the leather. Either I could cut three circles, putting speaker cloth behind each hole, or I could cut one larger rectangle enveloping all three speakers. The problem with the three holes is it looked like a face to me, so i went with the large rectangle. I carefully measured and cut the square and glued on the leather over some speaker cloth! </div>

China (2010)<br />
<br />
Here is a video I made using the Canon T2i while visiting China. I traveled from Seattle to Beijing. We toured the Old Beijing and the great wall before traveling to Guangzhou, Macau, and Hong Kong. The movie was made using Windows Movie Maker because it costs $0.00, my favorite price. Enjoy!<br />
