Antique Boot Box (with Shoe Storage)

Use the cut diagram to get cut dimensions.

Due to the nature of this project (1 sheet challenge) I am utilizing every square inch of my 4'x 8' board. In these plans I am using some of the cut-offs to create the back of the lower shelves to prevent stored items from falling out the back. If you would like, you can replace these pieced together cutoffs using a 1x4" standard board (2) @ 28 1/4". However you can use the remnant boards (F) to serve this purpose, you will just need to joint them together using a Kreg Pocket Hole Jig.

• Drill pocket holes on the underside boards, on both the short sides, and one of the long sides of boards (C) and (E).
• Next attach the "backs" (F) to the topside of boards.
• Attach it to the far side (There should not be Kreg Pocket Holes on the underside of attached back board.) (F). Using a Kreg Pocket Hole Jig drill pocket holes around the perimeter of boards (B) and (A). The pocket holes will be on the backside/underside.
• Attach board the partial back (B) to the false bottom (A).

Mark placement of the shelves (A) w/attached back (E) w/attached partial back and (C) w/attached partial back.

Using the marks from Step 5. install shelves (A) w/attached back (E) w/attached partial back and (C) w/attached partial back. Attach all shelves using the pre-drilled pocket holes (Step 3.) Using 1-1/4" Kreg Screws.

Using the holes on the top backside of (B) attach the top (D) using 1 1/4" Kreg Screws and wood glue around the perimeter. I then reinforced the remaining edges with 2" 18g. finishing nails.

Attach the door using 3/4" overlay hinges. Install magnetic catch centered on the interior. (Underside of board A)

I added wood veneer banding to the exposed edges of plywood. I also used a table saw to cut 1/4" grooves in the front of my front door (I) to give it the appearance of planks. I also used the 1 1/2" wide cutoffs to create a lip on the top shelf.
