Here lies all the materials and tools I am going top use to complete the project. Most are from my own collection that I have amassed over the years. I bought the router multitool on Facebook Marketplace from a friendly old man, and the lumber from Home Depot.

Fastening the pair of 45 degree joints will be done in two ways, firstly, through dowels. Dowels will be drilled into the end of the wood with a 1/4″ drill bit. The dowel will go into the hole left by the drill, and is designed to create a stronger joint. The dowels will have to be drilled to fit flush once the joint is fitted, so there is little room for error! The fasteners will go on top, bisecting the angel, and further solidify the joint. It may be slightly overkill to include dowels and fasteners, but it feels right!
