Is it not easier to buy a basic plastic bin?
Wood cutting…

Hello
I have had a bad month, sorry for late reply.
When my head is completely clear of the extra morphine and pain is good that day, maths comes easy, otherwise I need to use calculators for simple maths…
What jig would I need? Was hopeful I could get the supplies to cut the wood for me (at the angles), as the table saw isn’t fully setup yet.
When I brought the saw, it had the worst fence, completely twisted riving knife, and I can’t drop the blade down into the saw (change height of blade). I have brought and modified a good fence for my table saw, but don’t have access to cut wide sections yet as I plan to build a modular system so I can safe space, effectively turning my job site saw to a much larger footprint, by adding an out feed table, side extensions.
It’s a lot easier to buy something already made, however this is the only thing keeping me going, suffering from disabilities to depression to grief, and physical pain, working out what I need to do, is now key to my life.

general comments when you come to assembly
i glue them in pairs
i will apply d4 glue for 25mm then a 25mm gap at each end then d4 in the middle bit possibly a further one or two 25mm spots iff long
i then superglue spots and activator on other side just in the 25mm gap then hold firmly together for 3-5 mins then leave the d4 to cure for an hour on a hot day or 2 hours on a cooler day but not cold thats overnight
you then join 2 together to make a half never more
then you can lay on a flat surface and with a sheet off sandpaper get the surface flat iff its not

I'm wondering whether, as a start, you make one that's not tapered...?
I am after a bin that is not tapered, it was the only picture of roughly what I am after that shows the 8 sides, with wood grain…
It was not my plan to make one tapered.
