Jose - Just curious, what are you using that box for? Is it just a support for a light?
If so, it might be worth trying to do it yourself. It doesn't have to be water-tight, right?
I watched this video last night while doing some overflow box research. It doesn't look as hard as I originally thought. The key is smooth and flat pieces where the joints are made. The "glue" doesn't fill the voids in a joint like most glues do. It is actually a solvent that softens the acrylic so that the two pieces merge. Some people call it "welding" which is a more appropriate term than "gluing".
Then again, if you don't have the tools to make straight and clean cuts it might be difficult to try.Jarrod - Houston, Texas
