Step-by-step Instructions

1

Step 1

Build the basic box out of the 1x12s. You can use pocket holes or 1-1/4" brad nails and glue. All joints will be reinforced.

Step 2

Attach back to sides/top and bottom. Use the 3/4" nails here (the longer nails tend to split out the sides and are unnecessary for tacking the back on). Make sure you keep the project square as you attach.

Step 3

Attach the front pieces with 1-1/4" nails and glue. Again, keep project square as you attach.

Step 4

Build the door panel (I recommend using 3/4" pocket holes and 1-1/4" pocket hole screws). Attach the plexiglass with 3/4" long wood screws (you just need one in every corner). Hinge on with self closing hinges.

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.
