General Instructions:
Please
read through the entire plan and all comments before beginning this
project. It is also advisable to review the Getting Started Section.
Take all necessary precautions to build safely and smartly. Work on a
clean level surface, free of imperfections or debris. Always use
straight boards. Check for square after each step. Always pre-drill holes
before attaching with screws. Use glue with finish nails for a stronger
hold. Wipe excess glue off bare wood for stained projects, as dried
glue will not take stain. Be safe, have fun, and ask for help if you
need it. Good luck!

Step 1:
Transfer
side pattern on to your 1/2" plywood. Cut out with jigsaw. Copy and
create a second side. Sand the two together so edges match. Drill
holes through both sides for the wheels at this step (sized for your
hardware).
Step 2:
Build the pram bottom and ends with 3/4" pocket holes on underside.
Step 3:
Attach sides to the bottom and ends with glue and finish nails.
Step 4:
Install wheels to sides through predrilled holes.
Step 5 Instructions:
Use 1-1/4" screws to attach handle inside the pram, and attach dowel to the 1x2s.
Preparation Instructions:
Fill
all holes with wood filler and let dry. Apply additional coats of wood
filler as needed. When wood filler is completely dry, sand the project
in the direction of the wood grain with 120 grit sandpaper. Vacuum
sanded project to remove sanding residue. Remove all sanding residue on
work surfaces as well. Wipe project clean with damp cloth.
It is always recommended to apply a test coat on a hidden area or scrap
piece to ensure color evenness and adhesion. Use primer or wood
conditioner as needed.
You are done! Enjoy.
