Although long-lasting and durable, leather files have to be maintained and wiped clean every so often. Metal: Metal files are arguably the most sturdy and long-lasting. They tend to have a mesh design as well as an industrial feel, which is why they're a match for professional office areas.

I used a circular saw to make the long cuts. (To guide it on a straight line, I clamped a spare 1×4 to the plywood to act as a guide for the saw.) The short cuts were done on a drop saw, which was easy to set on a 30ºangle. Magazine files come in many different styles and materials. If you are unsure of what type of file you want, think about the following: how long do you need it to last and how does it look? Keep in mind that some materials like plastic and metal are more durable than others. Here are the most commonly used and their benefits:

Wood: A solid and sturdy material, wooden magazine files not only look great but are long-lasting.Yet, it should be noted wooden products do need to be maintained every so often and they have the potential to change colour. Cut the board into three 10″ wide strips and three 4″ wide strips, as shown. If you ask nicely at the hardware store, they can cut the strips for you. You can saw through the remainder with whichever saw you have at home, even a hand saw if necessary.

If you have clamps, they also do the job – but I found the tape to be gentler and easier for positioning the timber.) Plastic/Acrylic: Plastic or acrylic magazine filesare more durable and rigid compared to cardboard files.They have a more minimalist and modern look to them, making them a good option to display. So you’ve got all your pieces cut. Great! Time for assembly.These are the piecesyou need for each file.Glue the base piece to the bottomedge of one side, centered. Then glue the other side piece to the base. Tip: use a spare 1×4 section to prop up the piece while gluing.
