ok…so im not a very good carpenter…and I know this. But every man has a gene in him that thinks he can cut wood and slap it together perfectly. This is my attempt and story.
It started off with looking through forums on how to put a better stereo in my jeep, without taking up and of the little cargo room I have. When I stumbled apon this approach, I nearly wet myself. This is what I will be trying to accomplish:
I have a feeling mine won’t look like this, but its worth a stab at it….after all the material only cost me 13 bucks…no big waste. Since I am no good at this, and I will be taking my time, I plan on it taking me 3 or 4 nights, working only an hour or so on it each night. Here is night one….draw and cut..
Here is all the materials needed..
blueprints,
pencil, and plans,
a tape measure,
a square,
and beer.
So off I go, drawing, cusing, drawing and a bit more cusing. It didnt take me all that long to draw it so I moved to phase 2….cutting!
Hi, my name is Simon…and I like to do drawings….chicky monkey..bum looker….
the cutting materials….the wood, a saw, and more Guiness….
The cuttings have all been done…wasn’t as bad as I thought. I still need to do a bit more work to some of the pieces, but I will need a jigsaw to do that..and that is another night..
Finally, cut out pieces…
and a couple more…
This wasn’t quite as hard as I thought it was going to be. But then again, I haven’t tried to assemble it yet. I think that is where the problems come into play. But that will be another bat night, on another bat channel. So stay tuned…
