+ +
+ +# cutting to size + +I cut down the wood and used a joiner and planar to finish it. + +
+ +
After ripping.
+

+ +
In planar.
+
+ +
+ +
Chopping to length.
+
+ +I used the drill press to dril pilot holes (for hooks) and countersunk through holes (for mounting screws). + +
+ +
+ +# finishing + +I sanded the board to take off the edges and saw marks. + +
+ +
Sanding.
+
+ +
+ +
Endgrain detail.
+
+ +I applied two coats of my favorite "salad bowl finish" by brush. +I did it pretty casually but it came out well. + +
+ +
+ +Finally I installed my hooks, purchased from [Mendards](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menards). + +
+ +
+ +# final product + +As designed, the mug holder works great on the end of the awkward thin wall that divdes my kitchen and living room. +Given how little storage space I have in the kitchen, it's a real help. +Plus it's a nice way to display my mug collection! + +
