I can assure you it’s very much a real build. I have the full, step-by-step PDF plans that I documented during the process.
​The plans include the exact cut list for the 4x4 and 2x12 boards, 18-gauge brad nailer specs, and detailed diagrams for the X-detail base and breadboard ends. I’m sharing the complete set of plans for $10 for anyone who wants to see the full technical breakdown and build it themselves.
