With the basic cabinet complete, I was
ready to make the base. The base is a
frame joined with splined miter joints.
CUT TO SIZE. To begin, rip the sides
(Q) and front and back pieces (P) to a
finished width of 3" and rough length;

the easiest way to mount these cleats 11
was to cut a rabbet on the inside top

gluing, the mitered joints are splined
with strips of 1/8" hardboard. I cut the
