I need 32" across the top including two - 2x2s, one on both ends.



So how long do I cut another piece of 2x2 to put in the middle? They are not 100% 1.5".

Nvm... I see what you're asking now.

You have to check the width of the 2x2s and subtract that from 32"... it's probably 29, but mihght be more like 28 3/4" because the 2x2 may be in actuality something like 1 5/8 by 1 5/8

Yeah, I thought the same but went and measured two side by side and it is like 1/8" ish short of being 3 inches. I may have to go metric on this B!

Cut the middle one long by 1/8" or so, and file/rasp/sand it to fit.


Those perfect fitting cuts you see on New Yankee Workshop only work out with a spiffy table saw and mitre box and a jointer/planer and all that stuff. I presume you're not using that kind of equipment...

Tell me about it... I'm making some changes to my original designs for my basement shelves based on my measurements of the stud placements - according to my stud finder, the studs aren't true-- they're off vertical by as much as 1/2" in the space of 40". The corner of the room is also not 90", so there will be a gap where the 2x4's meet unless I cut one end to meet the angle - though I probably won't bother to do that since the joint will be hidden under the plywood shelf.

This.

Anything you try to cut exactly the right length will almost always be too short.

Always cut slightly long then trim until it's perfect.

That would then make the structure too tall for specs.
