I wanted to have the cut outs on the bottom board so that it would be easier to grab the cards. Unfortunately, drawing something on paper is not as easy as making it in real life, and my go-to carpenter roommate was off at work. I decided to use the miter saw to cut out the pieces. A good enough plan in that it made cut outs. Unfortunately, they weren't pretty and circular like I had in the drawing, and also unfortunately, my first piece snapped in the saw.
My second attempt was far more acceptable. Or, at the very least, passable.
After that, it was as easy as fitting on the sides or walls. Having the base made this ten times easier, and ensured that the corners were right angles.
Best part, everything fit perfectly!
And, even though I didn't plan it this way, the large cards also fit inside of the little insert, right on top of the starter cards.
