YOU WILL NEED
• old locker (1 800 x 300 x 450mm)*
• Evo-Stik Sticks Like Sh*t
• 18mm oriented strand board (OSB), cut to: two 1 185 x 435mm (bottom sides) two 435 x 330mm (top sides) one 330 x 264mm (top back) one 1 185 x 264mm (bottom back) two 410 x 264mm (shelf and base)
• jigsaw
• Alcolin Fast Set Wood Glue
• plane
• screwdriver
• one 256mm-long clothing rail
• 2 rail brackets
3 Glue a thin pine strip (4–5mm) to the short side of the shelf and base with Alcolin Fast Set Wood Glue; wait until the glue has dried then plane flush with the boards. Glue each panel, then paint the edging strips the same colour as the locker.
2 Now do the same with the two 435 x 330mm boards, then press them against the sides of the upper part of the locker. Glue the 330 x 264mm back to the top part, and the 1 185 x 264mm back to the bottom part.
1 Mark and cut the top corners of the two 1 185 x 435mm sides so that they will fit snugly under the shelf. Squirt a few blobs of the Sticks Like Sh*t on the back of these boards, then press them against the sides of the bottom part of the locker.
