[QUOTE]how do you mount the fan? it's square, so how do you cut a square out of the wood, etc., to mount it, if the mounting holes are not meeting a surface for the screws to grab.[/QUOTE]

I used coat hangers and bent them around to make mounting brackets.

Sure, you can do that. Cut the hole square to fit the fan and glue it in with adhesive caulk or RTV sealant.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
