Set two 36-inch boards on edge, 34 inches apart, and set the 34-inch boards perpendicularly between them, so they're also on edge and 34 inches apart. Screw through the 36-inch boards and into the ends of the 34-inch boards. Use twelve screws for this task. You will have a 36-inch-by-36-inch frame.

Cut two 1-inch-wide-by-4-inch-deep notches in each of the remaining boards. The notches must be 2 inches away from each end of the boards, parallel with the ends and cut along the same edge of the board. Use your handsaw, hammer and chisel to cut out the notches.
