    After spending 30 minutes trying to figure out the correct angles to use I decided to come to KZread for some help. My only question now is if my base is half the length do I need to use a different angle*? I have never made anything that needed angles cut. Your video is so helpful and the best one I found. Thank you so much.

    Just here to say a huge thankyou for this video - it was really easy to follow along and the construction method suited the tools I had available just perfectly. My saw couldn't fit the 1x4 vertically, but it did have an adjusted to 'lean' over 30 degrees, which worked out great. I added a shelf in the central mountain, so be able to add more items. I used 1x6 for the base, and set it to be +4 inches longer on each end, to provide a wider, broader shelf at the bottom. I used pre-conditioned for the staining, which I think is well worth it. I uploaded a quick video on mine after staining here - kzread.info/dash/bejne/mp9-l66ffqTYd7Q.html I decided to not doing the snow caps now, but will make a set of 3-sided snow caps out of thin ply, that can be removable, to change according to the seasons.
