You can now cut the board.

Procedure:

STEP 1: PREPARE THE PARTS

To build the Wood Hive Quilt, you’ll have to cut the subsequent wood pieces:

First, take 2 short sides measuring 30cm long by 10cm wide (11 13/16″ long by 3 15/16″ wide). the sting breadth of the board is up to you. A decent size is anywhere between 20mm to 25mm (3/4″ to 1″) wide.

Then take 2 long quilt sides measuring 34cm long by 10cm wide (13 3/8″ long by 3 15/16″ wide).

Finally, take 1 piece of material measuring concerning 40cm by 40cm (15 3/4″ by 15 3/4″).

STEP 2: BUILD THE BOX:

Take the items of wood and assemble them into a box. As you’ll be able to see within the image below, the longer sides go on the outside of the shorter sides of the wood. As you build the box, check the inner measurements each thus typically. They ought to be 30cm by 30cm (11 13/16″ by 11 13/16″).

For creating a hive floor, you need to take 2-floor halves measuring 33.5cm long by 16.75cm wide (13 3/16″ long by 6 5/8″ wide)

Then you have to take 2 short pieces of wood measuring 21cm long by 3cm wide (8 1/4″ long by 1 3/16″ wide)

STEP NO 2: Start the cutting:

Now use all of the measurements you took in the first step. Then outline the entrance of the hive. Start measuring all of the edges with the help of a measurement meter. Then use a square to the line in a rectangular shape as shown below.

Now you need to take a chisel and remove the extra wood in between the two cuts. Your Hive floor is ready. That’s sweet!!

Now it’s time to feature the landing board. Rotate the mounting assembly ninety degrees and lay the 41cm by 16cm (16 1/8″ by six 5/16″) board on the ground. Measure from one fringe of the ground and mark a line at the middle of the floor. The mark should be created at sixteen.75cm (6 5/8″). Now, mark the middle of the landing board. Align the 2 boards as shown below.

Now it’s time to fasten all pieces of the wood together. Here is a picture of the landing board fully fastened.

STEP NO 4: Attach the legs.
