You dont need anything elaborate. Only thing I use is a dinky table saw like yours and a jig saw...

Try working on ghetto fold out chairs and having to bend over for hours while cutting and measuring. Try using some ghetto *** clamps to hold a 30" board of MDF that is used for a guide for your circular saw. Try to get your measurements perfect by using your square that you can't get perfectly square and your tape measurer that just doesn't want to cooperate.

Having decent tools and nice place to work isn't 100% needed but it sure does make things go much smoother and faster without a lot of back pain.

Those are some nice looking boxes.
Here's one I built not to long ago.

is that gorilla glue on the inside or what?

Few I did...........

2^ft @ 31hz (Most recent build)

1^ft sealed (3rd build)

2^ft @ 32hz (2nd build)

2^ft @ 30hz (1st box build)

I may ditch using 12s and go with a 15" after I upgrade the springs on my saggy assed 4runner

Ummm I made my first three boxes (The 8th order, and two sealed) With a circular saw and a jig saw. Wasnt bad at all //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif I can knock an average sized ported enclosure without a table saw in around three hours...with a table saw easily under two...
Been there done that, I know what its like //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

Edit: Actually, the false floor/box/amprack was made with ONLY a Jig saw and a straight edge. The entire thing. Took me around 6 hours because I had to haul it into my car and test fit, recut etc...

I bet you didn't have 3 fold out chairs trying to support a full slab of MDF while you made all your cuts. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Looks pretty good for your first time but I think the logo and letters are sticking out a little too much. Maybe next time, you should try splitting the MDF or using 1/2 for lettering. Good work though.

yea i thought the same thing, but i just used the excess mdf i had from the box build for that so i didn't have to spend more on 1/2 like u said. plan on building another enclosure in the near future though so theres' always a 'next time'
