Mail Holder/Organizer

author-gravatar sidfarkus Oct 02, 2016

This is a small mail organizer I made for a small space behind our entry door.  This was made entirely with hand tools out of select pine from a big box store.  The back is 1/4 MDF in a rabbet.

This is showing my setup for cutting a large bevel on the bottom for each shelf.  I marked a line and planed to the line on the correct angle.

This is the dry fit of the shelves showing the alignment with the back of the shelf. The back was just 1/4 inch MDF in a rabbet joined with glue.

Sides laid out with dowels for joinery.
