Made entirely from 1x2 pine. Ripped into thirds for the shelf slats. Pocket holes. Glue. Brads and glue for the shelf slats.

minus-squarethenewred@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 year agoThat’s the next step, thinking through options. I have some 16" metal led strips that would work if I could cut them, but looking at the traces, they won’t work if cut. So I’ll probably have to buy something. Flexible led strips are likely the answer.
