You will need a total of 15 pieces of wood. Each piece must be 30 cm long and cut at 30 degrees angle. This means that each new board will have a longer and a shorter side, as you can see in the picture below.

The side with the more beautiful grain is the shorter one – it will be on the outside of the wall shelf
