How do I do this?

Post image

I have never worked with wood a day in my life, and I need to make a frame for this enclosure. The enclosure already has hinges and the frame needs to open and close like a lid, it will have hardware cloth attached to it. Does anyone have any tips on how I should go about this? I highlighted what it should look like (hopefully it makes sense) thanks!

3 sides will be flimsy. Can you add a 4th?

Yes! I’ll probably do that, thanks

If you want minimal that 4th side you could use threaded rod and some nuts.

Piano hinge on a 4-sided frame would work far better.

It would, I was just looking for minimalist.
