The Base

Screw the 2' long 2x4's to the 2'x2'-6" plywood. They should be oriented perpendicular to the surface, one on each edge and one in the middle. Three screws per 2x4 should be plenty.

Place a 1' long 2x4 on the opposite the plywood, screw it on flat in the middle of the board, with an edge touching the end.

Flip it all over and glue the fabric on to the bottom of the 2x4s. If you have longer pieces, maybe you'll want to use nails or staples to tack it up on the sides. If it's a heavy enough fabric, it should help keep from scratching your floors if it gets jostled.

I glued mine on with white glue and tacked the front. Sure, it's not very durable, but ya know? I couldn't care less. I'm not planning on moving this thing too much.
