2. Box construction - Steps

Take parts 1 and 2 and screw them together with the 3cm fasteners as the image shows.

Take part 3 and screw it with the 3cm fasteners as the image shows.

Take part 3 and screw it with the 3cm fasteners as the image shows.

Take part 5 insert it inside the frame you have created and screw it with the 3cm fasteners as the image shows 5,5cm from the bottom so part 8 which we will use later fits ok

Take part 6 and put it at the back of the frame and screw it with the 1,5cm fasteners

Take the 4 wood or metallic bars and screw them as the image shows. The three of them adjoin with the frame and one is 7,5 cm from the top.

Take parts 7 and 8 and fit them to the positions you see. Then screw them with fasteners and nuts through the bar holes.

Take part 9 and screw the two hinges on it. Then screw the hinges to the upper bar so the door can freely open and close.

You can add two small magnets to the door and two metal pieces to the frame so the door closes strongly.

Now your box is ready

Note: You must not use glue to the pieces above because after you fit them all together and have your box ready you will need to disassemble some parts in order to make the electrical connections. When you are sure your box is ready and all parts fits ok then you can proceed to the next page.
