Theo,
1 1/2 inches deep should be good enough although mine is 4 inches deep with 3 inches of sand. I reviewed the following websites before I constructed mine:
www.cognitivevent.com/sandbox.html
audiokarma.org (cheap, easy yet effective DIY sandbox turntable stand)
vinylengine.com (Sandbox-anybody built one?)
Total cost for mine was $22.00 with some change. It came out rough (I'm no expert in carpentry) but extremely effective. Very heavy at around 50 pounds. I could send you a picture if you don't mind sharing your email address with me.
Hope this information is helpful.
