If you will be using power tools such as saw and drilling tools, make sure that you wear safety glasses at all time. Don’t forget to focus on the task at hand as saws and other power tools can do a lot of damage very quickly!

Selecting the Right Wood

As with any crafting project, it is important to start with good quality supplies that are free of any defects.

If you want to paint your final project, pay particular attention to the color of the wood. Bass, aspen and furniture grade pine are wonderful choices because of their neutral color and moderate hardness.

Avoid defects such as knots, warping, cracks, gouging, or water damage.

Choose the right size of wood for your project. Note that typically, the dimensions given to a particular size of lumber (e.g. 2 x 4, 1 x 2) is the size of the wood when it is rough cut. Once the lumber is finished it will actually be slightly smaller than the stated dimension.
