What happens here

The first step involves preparing the base material for the hexagon accent wall. A 3/4 inch thick, 4x8 foot sheet of Medium-Density Fiberboard (MDF) is used. The sheet is initially cut in half for easier handling. Then, using a table saw, the MDF is ripped into multiple 1-inch wide strips. If a table saw is not available, a circular saw with a clamp and a straight edge (like a 1x5 board) can be used as an alternative.

Goal: Begin by cutting a 3/4 inch thick, 4x8 foot sheet of MDF into 1-inch strips using a circular saw or table saw. These strips will form the individual hexagons for the accent wall.

video let's go the hexagon accent wall was the first part of the project I get started with I went with a 3/4 inch thick four by eight sheet of MDF and the great thing is I only needed half a sheet for the amount of hexagons that would require for the wall so basically that's like 15 bucks so far budget wise we're looking pretty good I cut up 1 inch strips on my table side now if you do not own a table saw to accomplish this part there are other alternative options alright you beautiful people so
