a. Remove the lag screws securing the top to the sides of the packing crate, and remove the top from the crate.
b. Remove the lag screws securing the sides to the bottom of the crate, and remove the sides from the bottom as
c. Remove the nuts securing the baseboard to the bottom of the packing crate.
