Measure and Cut the Sides

Copyright © William C. Webb

The sides will also be 6" wide, in order to match the base. The top of the sides will be sloped from the front (7" tall) to the front (5" tall). When cutting the sides, first cut the tops - you will end up cutting out a triangle from the construction wood.
