my new box build, 2.3 cu ft tuned to 32hz re se 12"

i finally got the balls and attempted to build a slot ported box, thanks to moe lester for the box plans. i got my se 12" almost a month ago. since then its been in a 1.0 cu ft sealed box and i didnt like it, for the music i listened to. so i got w/ moe lester and he made me up plans for a 2.3cu ft tuned to 32hz. so here is my first build for a ported. so far i have a small 1/8" gap in one corner, i miss drilled 2 holes. i still need to cut out for the sub, and permanetly mount the front and back pieces. the back you see on there now is just screwed on to give me where i need to shoot screws at. enjoy.

the port and walls pre assembly

port and walls mounted together

now w/ temporary backing

and this is what happens when i very bored/crazy friend does when he gets the camera....makes a wasp out of wood dust haha

looks good. I had my SE12's in a slightly smaller 1.85 tuned to 32hz per RE's site and loved 'em.

thanks guys. im very pleased as how its turned out so far. im hoping to have it completed tomorrow w/ more pics and maybe some w/ sub in it. im going to keep it in the house for days so it fully cures, then its on to the truck. i cant wait. it sucks working in a garage w/ no heat or the right tools. a table saw would make this project much easier. thanks again guys.

nice work!

thanks, there are a few mistakes, but thats what happens when you dont have the right tools. im thinking about fiberglassing over it later on or throwing some laminate or something on it.

I know this is super old but I want to know what are the measurement of this box. I have to build something similar to this.
