A feasible cutting layout

Numbered cuts span their parent region. Coordinates use the sheet's top-left origin. Trim all four edges of each sheet you use first. Keep unused sheets whole. This layout does not claim the lowest possible material use.

Put it together

Craft supply tray exploded assemblyF1L2P1D1L1F2Exploded assembly · 410 × 245 × 60 mmInset base underside: z = 0 mm · actual sheet thickness 9 mm2 compartments · glued butt joints · illustration, not a machining template
  1. 1. Measure and mark

    Measure the actual sheet thickness (9 mm in this plan). Mark front / back F, left / right L, base P and dividers D. Recalculate if the measured thickness differs. Measure closed scissors end to end and keep any protective covers.

    Parts: F, L, P, D · Start here
  2. 2. Cut and label the parts

    Follow the numbered full-width cuts in the cutting sequence, then subdivide each labeled child region. Keep the part IDs and grain arrows. Use the instructions supplied with your tools; this plan is not tool training.

    Parts: F, L, P, D · After measure
  3. 3. Dry-fit the outer walls

    Front and back span 410 mm. Fit the 227 mm side walls between them. Check the outside footprint 410 × 245 mm and square the corners. The inset base is 392 × 227 mm; its underside sits flush with the wall bottoms. Total base clearance is 0 mm per axis (0 mm on each side).

    Parts: F, L, P · After cut
  4. 4. Assemble the base and walls

    Prepare and bond the butt-joint contact faces using an adhesive suitable for your sheet. Center the inset base at z = 0 mm. Check squareness before clamping. For a clearance gap, verify the adhesive allows that gap; use zero clearance or revise the fit if it does not.

    Parts: F, L, P · After dry-fit
  5. 5. Position the dividers

    Mark each divider from the inside face of the left wall. Place the first divider after 191.50 mm of clear space; repeat at a pitch of 200.50 mm. Glue the bottom edge onto P and both ends against F. Each compartment has 191.50 × 227 mm clear floor space. These are straight glued partitions, with no grooves or hidden fasteners.

    Parts: D, F, P · After glue
  6. 6. Cure, finish and check the fit

    Follow the adhesive manufacturer's cure and handling instructions. Smooth edges and apply a finish compatible with your materials. Attach four self-adhesive felt pads under the base corners. Store capped adhesive and covered blades; no child-safety certification is claimed. Use for light desktop items; no load rating is provided.

    Parts: F, L, P, D · After divide
