I think I misunderstand because it sounds like you mean the legs should be like the top right picture instead of the bottom right? So to go across the grain full width of the horizontal boards.
Could you explain your suggestion further? I try search "carpentry aprons", "woodworking aprons" to...
didnt think it was too important. its about 18mm thick, enough for my uses here. Too thick to want each platform to be 2 layers thick if possible. And I definitely have enough in length
I made it once out of a sheet of MDF so i cut each panel out to size (5 squares 20cmx20cm). I want to make a better one out of timber. The timber I have is 10cm wide. How would you tackle this?
Thanks for any advice
