1 Cut four equal sides of 1200mm out of the maple and mitre the corners. Put simply, mitring means cut all the corners to 45°. Once these are cut use the router to make two 12mm x 12mm channels along the length of each timber piece.

2 Nail three sides together ready to fit the gal mesh. This has been cut to fit and will slide into the routed grooves both front and back.

3 Place the fourth side into position and nail.

4 Finish the Maple with a coat of Danish Oil.
NB: For extra support we recommend securing to the wall with brackets.
