Step-by-step Instructions
Step 1
Build two of the frames, they are identical. Use a scrap piece of wood cut at 45 degrees or a speed square to help guid placing the boards at 45 degrees. Attach with 1-1/4" pocket hole screws or 2" self tapping wood screws. Use glue at all joints.
Step 2
Attach the two frames together with 1-1/4" nails, staples or screws and glue. Place scrap board over sides, mark angles, cut and attach for additional support.
Finishing
Sand all surfaces, starting with a medium grit and finishing with fine. Wipe off the dust, fill any holes or gaps with wood filler, and sand smooth once dry. Apply primer if you're painting, then finish with your choice of paint or stain and seal with a durable clear topcoat. For outdoor projects, use exterior-rated primer, paint or stain, and sealer so the piece stands up to the weather.
