those bends are pretty easy to make happen have done it many times before, and the box is done i will fiberglass around them on the inside and slotting the mdf to make those curves weakens it! thanks for the posts guys!

Looks great, I would move the sub a little closer to the port, more centered to the rear inside port "loading wall" but thats just me.

Them kerfs are going to be fun. As for the fiberglass, you can easily get away with just resining the inside area that was cut. Hardens like a rock, and super smooth.

The MDF will act much like glass matting... MDF is just a form of paper... Like cardboard pressed together. Depending on the power level, I'm also fairly certain the MDF will soak up enough resin and make the box as strong as it needs to be
