Screw the jigsaw!

Got the lads in our machine shop at work to CNC the lid for my fibreglass wheel well enclosure. Had it all CAM'd up first in the design deptartment.

24" x 18" MDF panel, with 2 holes and some rings to raise the subs. Deadly accurate with some machine marks for where the screws need to go so everything will be central / lined up when put together

No more wobbly circles or sawdust all over the garage!

No camera I'm afraid mate and TBH it's really not much to look at, but it's a load better than my wobbly handed effort could have ever produced!

You shouldn't be attempting to cut a perfect round hole with a jigsaw anyway. Their called jigsaws because they do wobbly lines!

Router and a jig do a much better job. Router is one of the main tools you should have if your going to attempt and ice installation.

CNC - sledge hammer to crack a nut.

I used a jigsaw and it came out fairly tidy

True, but I don't have a router and as long as I'm working where I am now, I'll never need one!

Offered it all up last night and the two subs sticking up arse out of the floor look great.
