  3. Cut out the pieces with the coping saw.

For sanding, I highly recommend you drop $7 $5.47 on a sanding block. For doing much sanding at all, your hands will be sore and the tips of your fingers numb for a couple of days otherwise. Or, if you've got a staple gun, staple the sandpaper to a chunk of wood. The commercial blocks are nice, though, as they're a little more hand-friendly in shape.

For holes, pick up a cheap coping saw. Makes cutting holes not too bad. This could be used for both the open hole for the cat to get through and for helping to mount the PVC. With an appropriately-sized hole, where the pipe will friction-fit it, a bit of epoxy will keep it strong enough that the board will break before the joint does. Just rough up the end of the pipe that goes in the hole so the epoxy has something to grab.

For mounting, L-brackets and screws will be fine, but make sure you drive the screws into the studs. I wouldn't take a chance using molly bolts or expanding anchors. If it fell, your cat would probably leap to safety just fine, but either you're not getting your security deposit back or you're learning to drywall.

For this kind of thing, if you don't have access to or can't afford power tools, I like a hand scroll or coping saw such as this one ($10 free shipping): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00002X222/ because you have a great deal of control, the cuts are thin (less wasted material) and the tool is light weight.

You can also use a standard hack saw ($8 Prime): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B5A0T5K/

For manual sawing, I also recommend using a basic miter box. This one includes a clamp too, and can be screwed into something to keep it from moving on ya ($10.75 Prime): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00009OYGB/

If you don't have a sander or a dremel for the edge smoothing, you can just use sandpaper by hand, but with all things manual, to make and finish 62 pieces of anything will just take longer.

Do let me know if you make a set for yourself! I'd love to check it out. :)

Edit: fixed a link and added miter box
