Mark the position of the screws, I've chosen to put them 1cm away from the edge. When you've finished cutting the slat, make the definitive rectangle shape with it, play with the position of the slats to find the optimal configuration, once aligned, hold them together by applying pressure with the clamp to the short sides of the rectangle, now they're ready to be drilled. To made the base, cut four pieces out of the wooden slat, the dimensions are specified at the image, to avoid problems when assembling them I used a mitre and a clamp to keep the slat attached to it, this tool keeps the blade in a vertical position, avoiding irregular cuts, a minimal amount of sanding might be made afterwards. Sorry about the lack of pictures, but by the time I decided this project to become and instructable I had already finished the base. Wood clamp (optional, but it makes the job a lot more easier).M8 threaded rod M8 threaded tube M6 screws and nuts.

Anyone who works with wood knows you have to make hundreds of holes for the screws and its almost impossible to make a series of holes perfectly straight and with the same depth by hand.
