Hour 4

After working for four hours we were not even close to done.  Before we attached the counter to the new stand, we put it stand on it back and began drilling on the luan.  Luan is a very light weight plywood and is perfect for set pieces.  It is easy to paint and because to it light it greatly reduces the weight of the overall prop making it easier to move.  We covered ever piece of the frame with luan and step by step it began to look more like a news stand.  We then screwed in the counter and used finishing nails to add a trim around it.
