Step 2Building the Chest and Back Boards
iImage Information

First cut twos 8" x 12" pieces of 3/4" plywood. You could also probably get away with using 1/2" plywood here, but i went with 3/4" because the chest piece will be supporting weight, and i didnt have enough 1/2" plywood. Scribe lines 1 inch in on the two long sides and one short side. From the unmarked edge, measure and mark at 1 1/2" and 2 1/4"(Picture 2). Measure and mark at 1" and 1.75" across the top line(Picture 3). Lastly, measure and mark at 2" and 2.75" down the side lines (Picture 4). Take the other board and clamp the two together one on top of the other. Next, drill out the holes with a 3/8 diameter drill bit and cut the pieces in between them with the jigsaw. If all goes well, it should look like picture 5. Route all edges with a 1/4" roundover bit.
