Clamp down your wood and cut your 1"x2" planks into 11 even pieces (ours were 32" in length, but you can choose to make these longer or shorter!) using your circular saw. Also cut the 1"x2" wood into 30 2" long rectangles to be used as spacers.

Tools

Circular Saw, Measuring tape

Materials

STEP 2

Using your nailer, attach three spacers (near the bottom, in the middle, and near the top) to one 32" piece of wood. Make sure to use a guide to be sure that all of the spacers are evenly placed. Place the spacers against something solid for safety.
