Oh the man tools, I felt like Tim Taylor from Tool Time.

Here are the raw pieces (we are missing a few) but we ended up buying...
We had to sand all the wood and brush all the aluminum and clear coated the wood and metal pieces to prevent rust and decay.

Here it is almost complete (we overlooked the stability issue).

We went back to the hardware store to get some much needed pieces, so here it is with a little more support ;) (had to pick up the short sides' L-Bar, 2'x4' plywood, L-Brackets, + short screws.

Just incase you were wondering if we ever finished the thing...
it looks really great! you should submit a pic with the changes that you made into readymade. i see them publish stuff like that in the letters to the editor part.
at least they will know that the published design didn't exactly work out in reality.
but it does look great. and i love a crafty endeavor. : )
