This build was very simple, it is just a counter top shelf meant to be a space saver. It was designed to raise my toaster oven for easier use and create a spot for storage of bagels, muffins, etc. Just another way to use Vslot, you can modify this to fit your needs. I have attached some pics start to finish.

Special Notes
The rubber foot pads and under glass pads grip very well to keep the shelf stable
