What happens here
To maximize storage and fit the unique angled wall, custom upper cabinet units are built. The creator uses a template to cut plywood pieces with a 30-degree angle to match the room's pony wall. These angled cabinets are designed to be 4 inches deeper than the lockers, providing a dimensional look and additional storage. The pieces are assembled using wood glue and screws. During this process, the creator uses trial and error with a combination square and table saw to achieve the precise 75-degree mitered joints required for the angled sections.
Goal: Build custom upper cabinets with angles to fit the wall and provide additional storage
