Step 1
This is how easy it is to build. Build the box with 2″ screws and glue or use 1 1/4″ pocket hole screws.
Step 2
Trim out the sides. Keep outside edges flush. Nail into shelves too. Use 2″ finish nails and glue.
Step 3
Now the top trim. Same thing, 2″ nails and glue. If you are using a Kreg Jig™, build the face frame first, then nail on.
Step 4
And tack the back on. It really is that easy. Now for the tough part – time to finish it Make sure you read though our get started section for finishing advice and general build instruction.
