Looks good, and I like the way you sealed the corners, but where are your braces? That thing is gonna breathe like a BALLOON!

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

there is no reason you should have to brace that box, it is small enough that it won't flex, we have done plenty of boxes bigger than that with out bracing them...and no flexing Jazzy -------------

ALWAYS brace a box... there is NO exception to this rule. My box is 12X12X12 outside dimensions, and I have 4 braces in it - 2 front to back, and two side to side, and all four of them connect the front to the back. I can GUARANTEE you, that if you were to place an accelerometer on the walls of even MY box, there will be vibrations present - and this box is quite a bit bigger than that - BRACE IT - you'll be more than happy with the results. The little bit of extra work you do will pay you back in quality of bass response.
