Looking for help with gauging the difficulty of a project (puzzle board)

I am a beginner, I have spent roughly 20 hours in a class setting learning how to torch and mig weld, as well as forge. I have access to a pretty great studio through the school that I am learning at. I am taking a 5 week course where I will be able to work on a project of my choosing. I will have instructor supervision/help, and access to the studio as needed. I am hoping to make a metal puzzle board for my girlfriend like this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CDZYRPQV?tag=btp-1422434-20&th=1. The goal is for the board to have a tilting stand, lazy susan, and drawers like the one I've linked. Is this a realistic project for a beginner/intermediate welder if I have help from my instructor? I would have 15-20 hours of studio time to finish it. submitted by /u/Witdasooo [link] [comments]
