I got only basic tools to work with, 10" circular saw, jigsaw, and a drill. But anyhow, here it is:
Building two boxes for a RE MX 12": 1.5ft^3 sealed and 2.25ft^3 ported, will test both and see which one i like more.
Some main cuts made by Home Depot, the rest my circular saw did the job:

that all works, shall be finishing both boxes tomorrow. Can't wait til sub comes in!
2nd days work, i got carpet at a local walmart, it's not big enough for the ported box, so i only carpeted the sealed. Need to order carpet online.
