Tools:
Pencil
Tape Measure
Miter Saw
Table Saw

Materials:
Masking Tape
2' x 4' x 1/2" MDF Board (For cubbies)
2' x 4' x 3/4" MDF Board (For new base)
Bottom board of Table

I cut the MDF and Bottom board of table down to size just using the table saw and fence.  Make sure to use Masking Tape.  Would actually be better to use the blue painting tape, but I did not have any at the time.

For cutting the one particle board in half and the cubbyhole dividers I used the miter push on the table saw.  The cubbyhole dividers I decided to do an overlapping joint (not sure what it is actually called).  I just used the miter push then would slide the board down 1/8" and make another pass.  Did this until it was the correct width.
