Your gonna need a sheet of 3/4" MDF, some Screws(wood or Drywall, Piece of Plexiglass, Carpet, Terminal Cups, Handles, Feet, Grill, Caulk, Router, Circular, Saw, Drill Thats all i can think of maybe a Clamp or two.

However its my opinion that if your a first time box builder that you should go with a sealed or ported Design because you probably will have alot better results. Bandpass Boxes Tend to have alot of sound quality problems associated with them unless they are designed exactly right.

Also Bandpass boxes tend to be pretty large, and are really only useful for bass music and some rap. If you listen to all kinds of stuff, go with a sealed design. these boxes are usually smaller too.
