Cut Top and Shelf Pieces


- You could use 3/4" plywood but I ripped two 2" x 4" x 8' boards in half and cut in 24" sections so you have 10 boards 3/4" x 3 1/2" x 24"
- Use wood glue to connect 5 board sections (top) and 5 board sections (shelf). Clamp and let glue dry
- Center a line drawing 15" x 24" x 8" on the top section
- cut out top with a circular saw
