Friday, January 05, 2007 - 03:03 GMT Alot of people use it to get rid of the 90 degree angles which allows air to flow better.

Sunday, January 07, 2007 - 04:29 GMT thats cool. Good price! I spent a lot because I needed tools. a lot of tools... But I to am thinking about building a new box, yes it cost a lot of money but this second time it should be easier to build and cost less. And I'll do a better job this time around. I want a box that sits lower but its wider. and change the bracing around.
