So now he had to install the bottom pieces. He had to make sure that they fit first soo like the instructions said it was time to measure.

The Gryffindor had cut numerous pieces before but now, as he looked at the bottom of the bench he could tell that the pieces were going to be too big.


SPOILER!!: Page 5

1. Prep the Area
2. Frame the Bench
3. Construct the Front Section
4. Double the Front and Back Support
5. Install the Bottom Supports
6. Attach the Plywood Sides
7. Attach the Top Piece
8. Attach the Strap Hinges
9. Attach the Trim


Step 5: Install the Bottom Supports


Measure the inside of the bottom of the box. Cut pieces of 2x4 to fit on the floor between the front and back bottom plates where the upright pieces meet. Keep these 2x4 supports lined up and level with the top of the 2x4s . Predrill the bottom supports so they can be toenailed into the bottom plates. This is where the 3/4" plywood bottom will sit.


Pulling out the measuring tape he lined it up with the back and front edge. Pushing the locking button down, Legend quickly wrote the length shown from the tape. He already had the width before.

The blond made his way to the other side of the bench and began to cut the pieces of wood off by an inch with the saw. BACCK and forth, back and forth. Sawing wasn't as difficult as yesterday. Yesterday his arms were sore for hours. Finishing the now simple action of cutting all the pieces he took up the drill and a board and began installing the wood to give the bottom of the bench.....a bottom.

ZZZZzzzzzZZZZzzzzzZZZZZzzzzzZZZZzzzz


He was actually starting to love that sound, the screw went in like butter. It was so easy now. He just had to make sure that he held the wood in place. After installing the fifth and final board, Legend's smile was obvious. HE WAS GETTING SOMEWHERE!
