My first brag - numbered cubby

Submitted by baklund on Sat, 07/30/2011 - 13:56

I'm working on a few projects I have half finished, but when I saw this one the other day on Ana's site I could not wait to do it and post my first brag. It's not perfect, my spacing is a little off because I didn't double check my 4" spacer board (it was only 3 3/4!), but I still like it and will put it up in my son's room. I tried to use the 1 x 2 and 1 x 3 furring strips like Ana used but the spacing didn't look right so I made it totally out of 1 x 3 strips. I used a nail gun and miter saw - was much faster then doing by hand.
