Tools: Drill / Driver, Pocket Hole Jig. Materials: Pine, 1x6, 8 ft
Drill two pocket holes at the 3/4" setting on each end of every long 1x6 board. Drill additional 3/4" pocket holes along one long edge of one of these boards (or plan to nail instead), then join two of the long boards together as the outer frame.
Tools: Drill / Driver, Pocket Hole Jig. Materials: Pine, 1x6, 8 ft, Wood glue
Attach the top and bottom boards to the sides with 1-1/4" pocket hole screws and glue, flush to the bottom edge of the sides and back.
Tools: Drill / Driver, Pocket Hole Jig
Attach any remaining shelf boards to complete the frame's grid layout.

Position the dividers evenly to form eight equal cubbies and attach with 1-1/4" brad nails and wood glue.
Tools: Brad Nailer, Level. Materials: 1/4" plywood, 48" x 24", Wall-mounting screws
Nail the plywood back on — it's what keeps the whole grid from racking, so don't skip it. Sand, finish, and mount to the wall, locating studs where you can.
