Well, except for hanging it. Here it is on the floor:
With the plans I printed after the dog ate part of my original set.
Here is where it is going:
I went with construction grade lumber to save money and frustration. The money is obvious, but the frustration factor is a little more subtle/personal - I am really not that good at casework. I did not just slap this together willy nilly, but there are a few mistakes that would have really bothered me if I were trying to make it look like high grade furniture. Anyway, I am aware that the bottom joint really needed to be tight fitting hard wood and mine is neither, so I reinforced that:
I hope to get it hung this afternoon and will likely post another pic or two tonight.
