Materials:

Box Design Blueprin

Want to build your own box? A blueprint design guide will help!

MDF

Find a local supplier, 3/4" is a good choice.

Speaker Gasket Tape

Use this special tape on your subwoofer frame to make it air tight!

Grill Guides

Adding a removable grill? Use these!

Spax wood screw

Want screws that REALLY bite? Use these!

Threaded Insert

Use these to make threads for machine bolts to mount your subwoofer!

Glue Bottle

Use this special bottle to apply glue at ANY angle! Upside down, vertical, right side up etc!

Wood Glue

In my opinion, the best glue for sub boxes.

Silicone Caulk

If your cuts aren't perfect, use this to make the enclosure air tight.

CA Glue

When you need something to hold quick!

Aeroport

SMD Terminal

These are SOLID! They do not flex!

SMD Terminal Multi Channel

These are SOLID! They do not flex!

Polyfill

Limited on space? Make the air volume seem larger for the subwoofer.

Speaker Box Paint

Use this to give a box a robust, durable finish.

Charcoal Carpet

Wire Disconnects

Use this on your amplifier power leads if you would like the amp to be easily removed.

Helpful tools:

Marking Tape Measure

Brad Nailer

Use this, or wood screws!

Clamping Edge

Use this with a circular saw to cut straight lines!

Templates

Rabbet Bit Set

Circular Saw

A budget alternative for a table saw, use this with the clamping edge for best results!

Clamp

Clamp your work piece while cutting!

Push Bloc

Keep fingers safe on a router!

890 Router

A router allows you to make precision cuts and apply edge profiling to a work piece. This is the first tool listed for a reason, it's a must own! Do NOT cheap out on a router purchase. I recommend Porter Cable because it works with all custom jigs and has both 1/4" and 1/2" collets so you can use all the recommended router bits. Click picture to view.
