Let's Get Started

To reduce the risk of injury user must read instruction manuals for all tools used in this project. Wear eye and respiratory protection. Use clamps to support work piece whenever practical.

STEP 1

Step 1

Begin by cutting the base front panel of the theater from the 1/2" plywood material. If you are following our design, measure and mark this cut at 40" wide by 30" high. From the same plywood stock, measure and mark a topper panel at 40" wide and 6" high. On your second plywood panel, measure and mark your side pieces at 20" wide by 48" high. With your material clamped to your workbench, cut along your marked lines using a Dremel Saw-Max tool with the Wood & Plastic SM500 blade.

STEP 2

Step 2

To make a pointed-top header piece as we did, find the center of the narrow header piece you cut in step 1. Mark down 3" from that point and with a straight edge, connect the bottom corner of each edge with the center mark. Using your Saw-Max tool equipped with the same SM500 blade, make your quick cuts along the marked lines.
