Select Materials and Plan Dimensions

you know when figuring out which materials I want to use for the project a couple ideas at the mine finish grade maple or birch plywood 3/4 inch stuff I thought it would be great it paints very well the only reason I didn't go with it is well the majority of these mudroom sections are always kind of made up of the same material that that really high density MDF so and because the place really gets trashed and it's gonna get painted white I didn't want to tinker with either a spending money on expensive solid stock be that you want to tinker with edge banding the exposed plywood on the sides so I just thought the easiest solution would have been just to use the classic four by eight sheet of MDF I think in my local store they run about 30 bucks a sheet I use like a sheet and a half so it was actually a really budget proof now for the sighs now the garage is considered a two-car garage but ever since I put a dividing wall up it kind of took some space away from it now the depth of the garage is the irritating part you can take a compact or mid compact SUV Park it in there or a sedan if you're not careful and really using your areas you could really take away from though the walking room into the house with the doors right in front of the garage so I didn't want to take away too much room so I figured an average seat I create it to be about 14 inches out 14 inches is enough for you but to sit on its enough for those bins to be inside and it's just it's it's not too big that I'd take away any walking space so 14 inches is the depth that I did the height of the overall thing was really up to whatever I wanted to do so ideally it kind of lined it up with that roughly eight feet tall to the top of the trim of the door into the house I think they're good clean lines that aesthetically looks really good and then the top bins well with those I didn't have to pre-plan anything I think I created them a little bit narrower not as deep sorry and so the bottom of 14 the top were 12 and with I just split it in three I said you know I'll get throw anything up there and as you saw the pictures you know it all works really well so for the assembling part that was
