Ive built 2 before. I was tired when I said brace how. I know what you were talking bout. It just didn't hit me right away. And yea I'm going to use wood glue then seal the edges then varnish it. And the reason why plywood first is cause I got plenty of plywood laying around

Cool!  So why not just make the enclosure out of plywood?  It will work just fine if you brace it properly.

That sort of design can work well, but in your case the enclosure is already too small so adding that sort of vent would only make it smaller and more boomy.  Unless yu can double your enclosure size, I can't recommend it in your case.

You can't just put any old labyrinth (AKA slot port) or port tube into a system.  You have to design it for a particular length and volume to tune the enclosure at the desired frequency.  For your woofers, to get any sub bass at all out of them, you have to tune very low, like 21Hz.  Do some calculations and figure out what that means your port length needs to be for the size of your enclosure and the size of the opening you plan to build.
