The amount of extra you need to cut, will all depend on the thickness of your carpet. This will give you a place to start the jigsaw, so that you can cut the circles out, remember to cut the holes a little bit bigger than the tube, because you will have the added thickness of the carpet to go inside of the holes also. You can then use the drill, and drill a hole inside of the circle you just traced on both pieces of wood. Once you have the base and top cut, you need to center your cardboard tube on each of them, and trace around it with the black marker. You can make the top part the same as the base if you want, we were using left over wood, and needed to adjust the size a little bit, to make it fit.
We also marked off the top part of the cat condo, ours was 18 inches by 13 inches. We then used the radial arm saw to cut the square. We measured it off and marked it with the black marker. The cardboard tube that we used was 12 inches wide, so we decided to make the base 20 inches square.
Once you have your tools and materials gathered, the first thing you want to do, is cut the plywood for the base and the top of the cat condo.
