noobs first box, switched from sealed to ported

First i know it SHOULD sound like shit, and it DID sound like shit. second i said i built this box b/c i was bored and wanted to practice on my cuts and assembly. i never said i HAD a proplerly constructed and correct size sealed box. the box i had was not correct size so that box doesnt account according to your post. i didnt say my box WOULD sound better then a properly constructed correct size sealed box, i said it sounds better then the box i was using, and IT DOES. i know mdf should have been used but like i said i was bored and didnt have a truck to go get mdf or have any mdf laying around. this was just a practice box to get me by for now. and i know it would sound way better using mdf b/c particle board is just to thin and wont hold up to the bass that well. i had planned on mounting the amp to the box but its not gonna sound good. the box flexes to much for that and it just slaps the amp. as far as the box size i used moelesters plans for 2 cubes at 32hz.

i kept all the internal deminsions but the outside is small by 1/2 inch each way b/c i used 1/2 inch wood insted of 3/4 inch wood. also the port is just a lil bit bigger b/c the wood was warped when i cut it and it was short just a lil bit but not enough to worry about. ill probly end up using this box for a spray booth for my airbrush when i get back to airbrushing.

thanks for the props tho.
