Great idea! I've got some nice old wood scraps and this design makes them go far!

Perpendicular to the miter.

Feel free to ping me if you have any questions. The mitered joints was.theost difficult part of the build. It helps to build a jig so you can get a real good clamp on there.

Sounds awesome can't wait to see pics. Hopefully you'll share.

I sourced the lumber from a little shop here in Idaho. It was rough sawn and thankfully straight enough. I don't have a planer so I just sanded for days until my arm fell off.

 

I posted this on Reddit awhile back when I finished the build.. but thought I would share on here in an effort to get to know people! Hope that's allowed.
