Got back from the beach around 1 today and decided to do a lil work before everyone that was at the resort with us got back to the house.

One side on the back part about to go in.

Getting ready to start the shell that will be around the back part. It will be a combo of 2x10's, 2x4's, and 2x2's. So this will make the walls of the back part go as follows: one layer of 3/4" mdf, two layers of 2x10's/2x4's/2x2's, another layer of 3/4"mdf, and possibly some fiberglass.

Gonna be fun straightening all of this out haha.

Where it is until tomorrow.

I'm surprised that I got any work done today. I've been going since Friday evening haha. And there was a 3 story water slide at the place we stayed on the beach, and I somehow managed to land on my head, then my hip started to slip again haha...But I felt like getting at least a lil done.

And a quick question. Does anyone know if the fiberglass that is used to make boat hulls would work for the inside of a box? I have access to about 1,000lbs of the mat, so all I would need would be resin. I figure since I can get it I may as well use it if it would work well.

If anything I would bet the boat fiberglass would be better since it is probably a thicker material. It might be harder to work with though....

It's really thick. That's kinda what i figured as well, but thought that I should probably get a second opinion.

Some good progress today.

Decided to practice using cardboard for a stencil since I will have to for the beauty panels.

Another side up.

First 2x10 test fit.

[rmzsuzuki89 61]

Other side.

Screws are a lil long for the job, but they do get the job done. Kinda looks cool too, even though all of this will be paneled off.

I came back into the garage to this.

Gonna start on the second layer of 2x10's tomorrow if I'm able to get to Hone Depot to get some more.

Mdf top along with the same 2x6 and 2x4 as the walls?

Mdf top along with the same 2x6 and 2x4 as the walls?

Their 2x4's and 2x10's.

But ya, there is gonna be .75" mdf all around the 2 layers of 2x10's and 2x4's, and another layer of .75" mdf all around the inside. I may only do one layer of 2x10's and another layer of mdf on the floor, or even maybe just another layer of mdf. It depends on how sturdy I feel it is. With the way that it's bolted down, it seems to be quite rigid now. It wont flex at all even if I jump up and down on it.
