Where's My Smith Corona?

Couch Surfer Construction 101

I had to downgrade my digs from the Hermosa shoreline to what the realtor commonly refers to as the quaint, fixer upper.  I was bequeathed 3/4 of a common area.  Sure, I’ll still ride the loveseat barrel, but I’m (not much of) an adult, damn it.  I need walls.

For the closet/desk/divider, I used 3/4 BC Sanded Pine and 5/8 MDF for shelving.  The leftover MDF I used as door frames.  Waste not.  It took 6 2x4’s to make the header and studs.  Finally, I used two more sheets of 1/8 Ply to finish the doors.
