Simple plywood strongback *Pic*

OK. I have spent a while pondering and this is the method I intend to use to build my ES strongback.

1. Make a plywood box to avoid warping.
2. Simple butt joints throughout as I don't have tools for anything else.

Unless anyone has any overwhelming reason as to why I shouldn't do it this way, then I will be starting cutting on Friday evening.

Francis.
