Torres calculator help & some small questions on box build.

[Relyks]

ok when i am trying to get 2.00 cu.ft after displacement on torres calculator i am trying to get the gross volume right? not the net volume?

does anyone usually put some type of glue or cocking/mold to make sure there aero ports are sealed?

anything anyone would recommend that i can pick up from home depot or lowes to make sure inside my box is nice and sealed?

Best screws to use? best glue to use? should i be ok if i let lowes/homedepot make my cuts?

and the carpet do yall put on with adhesive , hot glue , or just glue?

and last question would a slot port be better then a aero?

i have my own opinion on all just seeing what u guys think.

net volume is after displacements.

use wood glue, then seal the edges with silicone. Then if desired, lay down a coat or two of fiberglass resin for extra strength (and some say it may gain you a dB).

use MDF screws from home depot, they are skinny, sharp and keep wood from splitting. do NOT let the depot cut your wood. I let some stoner there cut my wood, and he fucked everything up.

I dont carpet my boxes, i prefer spatter paint. Leaves a "rock-like" finish.

And i always prefer a slot port than an aero.
