Step 2Cut strips for the box and face
Cut nine 4.5" x 48" strips from the 4'x8' sheet of chip board for the top, bottom and sides of the boxes and six 2 5/8" x 48" strips for the face.
To get good, straight cuts from the sheet, I clamp down a straight pine plank to use as a fence. The blade on my circular saw is 3 3/4" from the left edge of the blade's metal housing. I add 3 3/4" to all of my measurements for the placement of the fence and cut away. This helps me get straight, consistant cuts without a table saw. Thanks, Justin!
