Getting the woody

Once I designed how the cabinet will be put together, I knew how much wood I would need. Most people need three sheets of 4x8' plywood, but thanks to my small cabinet and some spare plywood, I could get by with two sheets. Each sheet of 3/4" thick sanded-on-one-side (ACX) plywood was $40.


I exploded the AutoCAD model and arranged each 3D solid onto 4x8' sheets, plus some scrap. There wasn't any room for mistakes.
