Design an enclosure for me?

[arkadiy 10+ year member]

I would like to get an enclosure designed for me around this sub:

I only have 1 sub, and would like this enclosure to be pretty cheap since it is only a temporary for like 3 months or so.

I was told if I go to Lowes with the dimensions they can build it for me for cheap, so that's what I plan on doing

u could probably get the specs on the box from memphis site. i dont know about having lowes BUILD your box, they will cut the boards to the right size for you to assemble but not sure if they will actually build it. if your not gonna do it yourself, get the wood cut at lowes and have your local audio shop build it, but of course best bet is to do EVERYTHING yourself.

How hard is it to assemble the enclosure after the wood is already pre-cut?

I definitely do not have the equipment to cut it out, I might stop by StereoOne tomorrow (great audio store) and ask them how much an enclosure there would cost...

I worked at lowes before and they do not build shit for ya...They will cut your MDF into pieces for you, and if dude tell s you he doesn't have the time, insist to speak to his manager...

Well, I know the head manager at Lowes so I'm gonna call him before going there I definitely want the wood cut out at least.

After the wood is cut out what do you need to do actually build the enclosure out of it?

since im assuming your not into any sawing, your still gonna need the whole cut. besides that, a cordless drill,liquid nail to seal the corners and some drywall/sheet metal screws.i personally predrill the whole before i throw the screw in there, so there no strippin. draw it out first before you do it, since you a newbie too it. youll be good man, its pretty simple once the woods cut. just basically put it together like a puzzle
