So I'm planning a sonosub project and I'm having a hard time figuring out what order to do everything. I am using the default configuration from Mr. Collison's Sonosub calculator program. Thanks a ton by the way!

This is very elementary but I'm a total dunce so please bear with me here.

Here is the raw materials list
1-4x8 sheet of 3/4" MDF for endcaps
I will not be putting anything on the top over the port. So I have the foot plate, 3 for the driver location and 3 for the port location.
5' piece of 24" sonotube,
3' piece of 6" PVC pipe for the port.
Then there will be the miscellaneous stuff, but I'm not worried about that right now

I drew the circles on my cad program and I can get all 7 end cap pieces out of 1 sheet of MDF if I don't mess up.

Here is what I have for a semi step by step process of going about this project. I could use some input on anyplace I seem to be awry.
Starting from the bottom and working my way up. My terminology sucks so again please bear with.
1. Cut 4 circles at 1'-10" for the inside diameter of the sonotube.
2. Cut 3 circles at 1'-11 5/8" for the outside end caps and the floor plate.
3. Cut the recess circle out of a 1'11-5/8" piece then make the woofer cut out. I'm not sure how big these cut outs will be yet but I will have the dimensions once I get the driver.
4. Make 2 more woofer cut outs on two of the 1'-10" boards. The driver location cuts are finished here. Glue these three pieces of wood together? What about a chamfer cut?
5. Cut out a 6 3/8"(outside diameter of port) circle on the other two 1'-10" boards
6. Cut out a 6"(inside port diameter) circle on one of the 1'-11 5/8" boards. Round the cut out with a 3/4" round over bit. The port location cuts are finished. Glue these three pieces together?

That's all I really know at this point. What's the best way to secure the end caps to the sonotube? And how about attaching the footplate to the bottom driver plate?

I will probably be picking up the first round of supplies tomorrow and start making the cuts for the end caps. I will post pics when I make some progress. Ordering the gear will come when I get the extra tuition money from my school. Probably a couple weeks or so. If anybody could add to this I would appreciate it.
