Hi Tyler
One thing about this site, ask for help about a specific problem and you'll be snowed under with advice
Check out the Resources tab or click on the “Essential pages” tile on the right side of the page where it says “Freeplans & How to build” They’ll both lead you to the right place? Here’s something that might interest you, doesn’t get any easier than this:

Looks great Rich, no problem making your own box. ;)
OK, been building for a few weeks now. First I made a prototype just to get a 'hang of' the woodworking then made my for electric 3 string. I cant get the proper cigar boxes so I make my own from 8mm plywood. The neck is scrap palette wood and the electrics supplied by Chickenbone John (in the UK)
Turned out OK and sounds good
