I used all 1/4" poplar in 2"-4" strips from Home Depot. Anything wider than this was heavily bowed. This is the general layout of the magazine box - many 2" strips would be glued up edge-to-edge into panels for the sides, and a few 4" panels would become the back, front, and bottom faces. In the background, several stacks of wood are intended to become the small boxes for the opposite side cabinet.
