[QUOTE="Toxxyc, post: 770232, member: 19314"] Yeah I'm planning on using 16mm MDF all round and doubling up on the baffle with 2 layers. My local Builders refuses to sell any sheets smaller than the full size, but i sniffed around there the other day and found much smaller sheets of something between MDF and chipboard. It's finer than chipboard but not as fine as MDF, and it's used and sold for shelving. I think that would work fine, since it comes in 450mm wide boards of around 2m in length, for around R120 or something a board. Thickness is around 12mm IIRC, so I will still double up and perhaps brace if needed. Really looking forward to this build now. Drivers have been delayed, but it's a minor setback. Designs and whatnot can continue! [/QUOTE]
