How I made this project

• Corner sofa developed in Google SketchUp to have all the necessary materials with the correct dimensions
• Purchase beams obtained from a construction store
• Had MDF panels delivered sawn to size, including corner finishes /li>
• Assemble the basic construction with seat parts placed on the construction
• Assemble the rolling drawers (with wheels under the drawers)
• All outer parts sanded and varnished ( sides of MDF panels first plastered)
• Finishing touch with power strip in the corner and handles on the drawers
• Cushions ordered to size; these are still being delivered
