A slideshow showing the design and components of our homemade box.
I am working on a set of instructions for everyone so i will have that up asap
Materials List (For two boxes)
6 8 ft 2×4s
4 12 or 10 ft 2×4s
6 10 ft 2×6s
3 4×8 ft plywood sheets
8 10 ft ¾ inch PVC pipes
1 large box three inch screws
1 large box 1 and ¼ inch screws
If you have any questions, I will try my best to answer them.
I hope you guys like what we have made, we take pride in doing a quality job. This project took a total of three days, of 4 hour days prehaps.
We have just finished welding a T-box together, very professional, and we will have a video up as soon as we can.
I encourage everybody to use this design and post a video response! All I ask is that if you use my design, please refer back to my orignal movie and give it proper referrel where it is due.
