Basic grill making

I made a few bread cooling racks and was asked how I did that. This is how.

I start with two pieces of wood. One for the width and one for length.

Then I cut the slots in each piece. Exactly one half the thickness of the wood. The space between the slots does not matter. I just eye ball it, because it's too hard for me to do the math. They will fit no matter what spacing you cut the slots, believe me. Random or calculated.

Then I cut the boards into strips exactly as wide as the with of the slots.

Then put together, nothing to it.

Well hope this helped someone out. Good for all sorts of things. I once made my mother-in-law a plant press with this method, but it was heavier duty. It worked really well.
Go wild, thanks for looking, Jack….......
