Remove any excess junk hanging off of the grills arms, and salvage the screws and bolts. We'll need to embed them into the wooden tray.

Use the spade bit to make the holes marked by the spray paint.
Next, drill out the slots that are going to hold the utensils.

Connect the Pieces.

File the top of the socket flat, so it fits nicely into the tray.
Use a little wood glue, and insert the socket.
Set the tray into the holes of the grill arms at all points, and bolt it to the Grill.
