Step 1
Start by building the two boxes that will form the sides
of the unit. Build the first box by connecting the sides
(400 mm x 659 mm) x 2 to the bottom shelf (400 mm x
232 mm) x 1. Repeat the same process to build the
second box.
Step 2
To complete the boxes, attach the rails (80 mm x 200 mm)x 2 to
the top end of each of the two boxes. First drill pilot
holes, counter sink, apply wood glue to the contact area
and then fasten with screws. The rails will give extra
support to the top of the unit once it is installed.
Step 3
You are now ready to install the shelves. Mark the sides of
the boxes to ensure that you position the shelves (400 mm
x 200 mm) correctly. The shelves should be installed
350 mm from the base of the box. Measure and extend the
line around the side of the box. The line will act as a
guide
when you fasten the shelves with wood glue and screwsfrom the
sides. Make sure that the shelves are level before
you fasten them from the outside with screws.
