Cutting the Pieces
Start by marking and cutting the pieces
necessary. In our project the width is 36 inches and the unit stands
48" tall. There are four shelves, two folding (hinged) end pieces
and a back frame. If you are going to use a clear finish,
start with 1 x 10 stock of clear, select or D and better pine. Lower
grades may be used if you are painting the project but the lower grades
are often not as straight. The side shelf standards and the back
frame are made by cutting the stock to length. You can rip the rails and
cross members to 1-1/2 inches. This is a good time to sand or plane the
ripped 3/4" faces.
