DIY speaker enclosure, maybe TL?


I'm planning to make a pair of speaker enclosures for Accuton drivers, and people have told me I should go for a Transmission Line type. I've tried to read on the Internet about TL's, and realize that while the audiophile community owes a huge debt to Martin J. King and George Augsburger, their stuff belongs to an engineering grad school curriculum, with me being stuck somewhere around the 6th grade. I've ordered a couple of books, Vance Dickason's Cookbook for one, but before they arrive, can anyone guide me toward a practical design? I can do the carpentry but the details of a design still seem a distant goal. Any help would be much appreciated!

I have built many ported designs but never a TL. There are boat loads of links out there on the topic. The best speaker book I have found for the beginner is speaker buidling 201 by ray Alden. I would start with that and read the Vance Dickinson books after.
Tony Gee has a great web site with projects and the forums on Parts express web site and madisound have oodles of info as well.
