Howdy Norman,
You can make it to a size you desire---suitable for your needs.
Ex: 3ft long, the width of your entry door, and 18-24" deep.
Select the o/a (overall) size, so as to utilize a full board material size---ex cut and ripped from a 1x 10 x (random length) cedar.
If you're new at wood working, you can make sketches/drawings or make temporary templates from cardboard, before tackling the project and cutting up the wood.
TIP: allow material for the saw kerfs.
Place the cardboard pieces on a suitable flat surface, tape the pieces in place, step back and have a look-see----if it's to your liking---''go for it''.
TIP: make the pieces a ''tad'' longer, so that if any pieces don't align, you can trim afterwards.

Thanks for sharing.
PS---I enjoy your website---lots of great info and tips.

Running the slats the long dimension, (side-to-side), will result in increased sagging/distortion, over time, and not be flat, (the surfaces in the same plane).
Nice job on both the video and door mat.

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.
First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
