INSTRUCTIONS

Although Baltic birch was my choice of wood for this project, you can select your material from a variety of hardwoods or solid core plywood.

Referring to the Bill of Materials, cut the wood pieces to size. Adhere the patterns to the wood pieces with spray adhesive. Bore blade entry holes and saw the interior cuts fol

lowed by the outer shapes. Note: if the wood you have chosen is other than 1/4" thick, adjust the slots in the Frame (A) to accommodate the thickness of your stock. Drill where necessary to receive the wire brads and also the screws to secure the hinges in place.

When cutting is complete, remove patterns and sand as needed.

Assembly

Attach the Sides (C) to the Top and Bottom (B) with glue and No. 18 x 5/8" wire brads. Attach this assembly to the Frame (A) securing with glue and wire brads if needed. Next, attach the hinges of your choice to the Doors (D) and Braces (E). Finally, attach this assembly to the front edge of the Sides. Finish as desired.
