Step One: Planning
Making the calculation of sawing wood is not so simple. If you take the classic octagon, then there are no difficulties and the angle is known - 22.5 °. In this case, in the octagon, the front and back of the sides are not located on the same plane. The master made a series of calculations and found out the exact dimensions and angles for sawing wood.
For users, the wizard provided a calculator, which can be downloaded from the link below.

Boards from the pallet are processed on the planer. The master needs dies about a centimeter thick.
Continues sawing, trimming boards and cuts to size.
Sets the cutting angle according to calculations.
Saws workpieces.
Grinds workpieces.

Four mounting holes are drilled in the top cover, and one for the socket.
Drill mounting holes.
Assembles the body and polishes the place for mating parts.
