    Just a helpful hint on the curves of the 1/2 plywood, set your skill saw just low enough without cutting the plywood in half, and cut as many perpendicular straight lines across until you achieve the perfect 90⁰ angle 🤙

    How did you mount the console to the floor? Not sure how much room there is for a fastener to penetrate.

    • @NoobMechanic
      @NoobMechanic  Před 2 lety

      With this console I built it to be a wedge fit. Its tight to the front and back, side to side. So It doesn't move at all. But there is no fasteners at all.
