14. Before you attach the bottom, make sure the overhang is even all the way around, to that it is lined up perfectly. Put on a few clamps to hold it in place. Adjust the combination square to help you guide the drill bit.

15. It is imperative that you drive the screws in straight, or they will come out the side panel. Insert the first screw on the end panel.

16. Measure for the placement of the side panel screws and drill the pilot holes. Drive in the screws.

17. Once the final screw is in, measure for the placement of the feet. Position the mounting plate and use an awl to mark the holes (figure F) where the screws will go. Pilot holes into the awl marks. You don't want the holes to be too deep or they will go through the bottom panel--so mark the depth on the drill bit with blue tape.

18. For the feet, place the mounting plate on the bottom and line up the holes in the mounting plate with the pilot holes that you drilled earlier. Drive the screws into the mounting plate. Do this for all four feet.

19. Once the final mounting plate is secure, it is time to attach the feet. Notice the threaded rod on the mounting plate. The feet have holes in them that are threaded to accept the rod. To attach them, simply screw them on (figure G).

20. Once the box is assembled, all you have to do is insert the metal dividers. The metal slats are very easy to install. They just slide into the grooves in the ledger grip (figure H).

21. Screw in the caps so that you don't accidentally pull out the metal slats.

22. To attach the plywood caps, drill a pilot hole into the ledger strip. Position the hole away from the metal dividers and in the center of the ledger strip. Insert the screw. Put two screws into each cap--one on each end.
