Step 5Grab your wood

Grab your wood
Take a Miter Saw or a saw of some sort, and cut your pieces of wood into 1 foot lengths.

A tip I used was using my first piece cut to measure the lengths of the rest. That way we keep the lengths constant throughout.

On your driveway or workbench, set up your wood in a box shape. This just gets you an idea of what it will look like. I made a few mistakes by not setting it up, and I don't want to pass it on to you.

I have a diagram below of how I set mine up.
