    iv built plenty of sealed boxes and a few ported, but those were just duplicates, i can build 2 boxes ported and sealed for about 50$ to see what will sound better. im confident enoughf in my work to say i built it. its just the ported box not really sure how to tune it , to build the hallway ports. dose anyone know the formula?

    well i'd like to built it but i dont have any power tools.only a drill.then it would cost too much to buy them to only use them rarely.

    I cut pretty straight so a little bead along the edges is just for added security

    i talked to a friend at work.hes got enough tools to build a house.he said he would help me.he dont lend his tools out so i have to go over to his house.he is planning on doing a small system for his daugters car anyways.so it will be a leaning expereance for the both of us.so we will go in on the cost of the supplies.wont be for a while though its too hot outside.will wait till it cools down.still have to figure out what size and shape box i want.am wanting to maybe get a second L5 10.so many ideas so little money.lol

    the box im going to build will be a rectangle shape lets say side to side 20in front to back 26 and top to bottom is 7in, the woofer will be faceing up mounted in the 7 in of dept. any ideas of a port? can it even be done on a weird shaped box like this? im doing it this way to save space.

    I'd have the port firing rearward with the sub facing up...

    Can You Be A Little More Sposific? Will The 7 In Still Be From Top To Bottom? The Port Will Run From Back To Front?

    Still 7 inch heighth...but I'd double up the baffle board...the 15 L7 is a beast...port facing the rear....if the port faces the rear the only way it can is from back to front
