Requirements

Body. 3 Carbonite Boxes (about 10 in. deep, 12 in. wide, 31 in. long).

Legs. 4 Strips 1/2 in. thick, l 1/2 in. wide, 5 in. longer than three times the outside width of the box. 4 Strips 1/2 in. thick, 2 in. wide, 5 in. longer than three times the outside width of the box.

Top. 1 Piece 5/8 in. thick, 3 in. wider than the outside depth of the box with the cover removed, and 3 in. longer than the outside length of the box.

Facing Strips. 6 Strips 1/2 in. thick, 2 in. wide, about 7 in. long.

Construction

Make the legs 5 inches longer than three times the outside width of the box. Remove the covers. Turn one box on its side and remove the upper side. Do the same with the second box. Place the second box on its side upon the open side of the first box, keeping the open side of the second box at the top. Upon this open side of the second box place the third box, keeping all the cover openings facing the same way. Fasten the three boxes together by nailing two strips placed vertically across the bottoms about 2 feet apart, to hold them together while the legs are put on. Turn all three boxes on their backs and nail on the legs, keeping their upper ends even with the top side of the last box added. Turn the stand upon its legs and nail on the top, allowing its edges to project 1 inch over the outside face of the legs all around. Put on the facing strips at the ends and remove the temporary strips from the back of the stand.
