I had a shitty speaker and amp sitting at home doing nothing, so I decided to kill some time by building this box.

It looks like shit, but it actually sounds pretty good for what it is.
I built it all to spec, it's ported, tuned, all that.
It was just something to keep me busy, I'm happy with how it turned out even though it doesn't look good, it still functions well.
I love subwoofers, idk what it is about bass but it makes me happy.
I use to have an L7, it slammed, I loved it, then I sold it to buy some weed.

Think of how much cough syrup that would have gotten you next time man.

I've been listening to it all day, this is one of the better single 10 setups I've seen, and it's with a shitty Walmart speaker, I think that goes to show that box construction is important.
While I was typing this my landlord came over and told me to turn the loud bumping rap music down.

How did you learn to build stuff like this?
I installed an aftermarket deck and speakers in my car, but would still love to put a low profile 8 or 10 inch subwoofer in. I like do it myself stuff so learning how to build my own sub would be awesome.

Kicker gives you all the specifics for boxes for their speakers, but for a low profile one just figure out how much cubic feet it has to be and make a box, then glue/staple carpet to it.
If your building a sealed box that's all you gotta do, but I strongly urge you to build a ported box, it's much better.
All you have do to figure out how to make the port is figure out what frequency you want it tuned to and use Google to find a port calculator, and that will tell you what dimensions to make the port.
I reccomend going here http://www.kicker.com/Product_Manuals/93 then picking the speaker of your choice, then downloading the technical manual for it, then in the technical manual it shows you how to build a box.
Here's the one I used.
