I started off the day by making more cardboard templates for the front of the shelves in the head and the front piece of the hanging locker "box". After that I tackled the second coat of paint in these areas. I cheated a little bit and skipped the bottom of the shelves. They looked pretty good already, they won't be getting a lot of wear, and I am running low on paint. Everything looks pretty good, now it's time to close 'em up. There wasn't much I could do with the wet paint without messing it up, so I headed home. I cut out the pieces I need. I used 1/4" plywood for the head, and 3/8" for the locker to add a little extra strength. Unfortunately I didn't have a large enough piece of 1/4" so I had to split it into three pieces that I will put together in place. I'm not sure if I could have fit one large piece in there anyways, so it wasn't something I am upset about.
