Building box for first time...

ive read a few threads all over different boards, just wanna get a feel, going to try my hand at it over the winter to re-do my trunk...

i want to do a setup with a sub on each side of my trunk rather than having one big box in the middle like i do now, so what i would need beside the wood, carpeting, etc...what do you use to seal it, how do you measure to build to specs of the sub, putting terminals in the side, precautions, etc...things like that...

i have currently 2 10" MTX Thunder 6000's (which i believe needs .75 ft^3 for a sealed)

if you have sites as well that are informative, post em, any help is appreciated!
