The portable bandsaw blitzed through the wood nicely. Without even effecting the battery level.
Here's the results laid out near where they will end up. The T shape is the base. The small square on the left is for the engine and goes above the base of the T.
The rectangle on the floor is for the top of the fan. And the vertical segments are on the left that go next to the fan.
I did not cut the verticals for under the engine as I have not done the stackup analysis to find out how high the engine mount should be for the fan positioning.

I bought some angle brackets at home depot to help with the assembly stages. And I got an oak plank to be the engine mounting block on top of the above structure.
