5 sheets of 18mm MDF, kindly broken down by the nice chap with the panel saw in B+Q. Can't get full sheets in the back of my car........ click for larger picture

Run rebates around the back and top edges of the sides. I used the dado in my table saw but a router will do a great job also.

The doors are made from MDF with ply panels. Pocket hole screws at the corners hold them together-easily strong enough for their intended use. A few coats of paint and they will be ready to hang. Just the work top to finish.
Work top is complete (double layer of 18mm MDF) The radiator cover is all that's left.
