Top and bottom frames | Front and rear walls
Step 1: Make the top and bottom frames
Out of 2×2 (50mm x 50mm) stock make two rectangle frames 26″ (660mm) x 46″ (1170mm). To both frames, add a cross-member 16″ (406mm) in from one end. On one of the rectangle frames fix a piece of plywood (the floor) 16″ (406mm) x 26″ (660mm), as shown in the picture and Plan 1.
Note: The sizes mentioned here are the nominal sizes (in name only). The real (actual) sizes of the woodTimber, lumber. The hard fibrous lignified substance under the bark of trees will be less once the wood has been dimensioned (dressedSurfaced; planed; smooth; even surface; gauged., planed).
For example: 2×2 stock (nominal sizeThe rough-sawn size of a piece of lumber. Before the lumber is surfaced, planed or dressed. The nominal size is usually greater than the actual dimension. e.g. 100x50 (2 x 4) actually equals 90x45 (1 1/2" x 3 1/2").) once dressed will be 1-1/2″ x 1-1/2″
Step 2: FixTo secure with nails or screws. the front and rear walls
Note: The front wall is 2″ (50mm) higher than the back wall.
Stand the rectangleFour-sided figure with four right angles. frames on edge, parallelBeing of equal distance from each other at all points., and apart 17″ (432mm) overall.
Out of 1/2″ (13mm) plywood, cut the back wall panel to the dimensions given in Plan 2.
Fix it to the frames, ensuring one edge begins 1/2″ (12mm) up from the bottom of the bottom frame, and the other edge is flushBeing even with. with the top of the top frame.

Flip the unit over.
Out of 1/2″ (13mm) plywood, cut the front wall panel to the dimensions given in Plan 2.
Fix it to the frames, ensuring one edge begins 1/2″ (12mm) up from the bottom of the bottom frame, and the other edge runs past the top of the top frame by 2″ (51mm).
Refer to the picture and Plan 2 for detail.
