Carpenter / cabinet maker for an easy job

    I'm looking to get someone to make up some of these for me;

    They're basically a sheet of 18mm ply, cut in squares of 380mm, and joined into boxes (you get 9 boxes from 2 sheets). I made these ones using pocket hole screws + glue, and they were then sanded, varnished, sanded using 240 grit, and varnished again.

    I'm looking for someone to do the same job with 5 sheets of ply, 4 done as above and 1 done with a slightly different cut size (illustrated here);

    I'd make them myself but have a new baby in the house and would like them in place over the next few weeks.

    Does anyone know someone who would be up for the job? I can even supply the wood pre-cut (via woodworkers), I just need someone to put them together and sand and varnish them twice. If someone wants to supply the ply I'm good with that too if the price is alright.

    Realistically the sanding and varnishing, twice, would take up most of the day:)

    I'd suggest you add a back for stability. Routing a rebate on the back edge and screwing it on ( not tacking with nails ) will keep it square.Ideally spray finish before the back is on or the stuff will bounce straight back at you.;)
