Before beginning to build, always check in on my site to make sure you have the most up to date set of plans, I occasionally update and change the plans to make the building process easier or to allow for less expensive purchasing of materials! Read through the entire set of instructions and all comments before beginning this project. If you print out or save plans, be sure to check in on my site to be sure you have the most up to date set of plans, as I occasionally update things for ease of building or buying. If you are new to building, read through the GETTING STARTED section and other articles found under the BUILD tab in the menu on my site, it has valuable information about how to get started, tools and techniques. If you are unfamiliar with the finishing process, visit my Finishing school for some tips and tricks for painting like a pro and for special finishing practices. Use glue to secure your joints and Consider Painting or Staining individual sections prior to assembling. This makes the paint application virtually flawless. Coat with a spray on Poly or Wipe on Poly to protect your finish and your piece and it will last for ages. Adhere to all safety standards and guidelines, and be sure you follow safety protocol throughout your build. If you are unsure about whether you are building safely, run a quick online search for the tool or technique you are using, or contact me via email or post to the forum before you move ahead. My contact info can be found in the menu of my site.
Edge banding will be applied to the exposed edges of the plywood before assembly.
For the cubby:
Cut the pieces for the top, bottom, and sides. Set the Kreg jig for ¾” material and drill pocket holes in each end of the sides. Secure to the top and bottom using glue and 1-1/4” pocket hole screws.
Cut the piece for the back and drill pocket holes in all four edges. Insert into the box frame then secure using glue and 1-1/4” pocket hole screws.
Cut the pieces for the divider. Insert the pieces into the box as shown, then secure using glue and 1-1/4” pocket hole screws.
For the boxes:
Cut the pieces for the bottom and the sides. Drill pocket holes in all four edges of the bottom as well as each end of the side pieces. Secure the sides to the bottom using glue and 1-1/4” pocket hole screws.
Cut the pieces for the front and back. Cut the notch using a jigsaw then secure to the sides and bottom using glue and 1-1/4” pocket hole screws. Apply a coat of paste wax to the bottom of the drawer to help it slide smoothly in the opening.
If building multiple cubbies, stack and secure them with countersunk 1-1/4” screws. Attach casters according to the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
Fill any Screw, Nail or Pocket Holes, Sand and Finish as Desired. For Finishing Tips and Tricks visit my Finishing School
