TEMPLATE & SPECIFICATIONS - TEACCH Model Shelving Units

All units were assembled using stain grade finger jointed pine, 3/4 of an inch thick. The back panel is 5/16 masonite press board. After units were assembled they were smoothed, hand-sanded and stained. Staining was done by hand with Min Wax water-based wood stain (White Oak). After one coat of stain was applied and dried it was sanded again using a 220 fine paper. A spray gun was used to coat the units with 5-6 coats of water-based Polycrylic by Min Wax, sanded between each coat. After the units had completely cured, slider feet were applied as the final step.
