Forgot to say, when I made some hexagonal boxes, I set an adjustable fence with a 30-60-90 drafting triangle.

I'm reading a "vintage" FWW issue that talks about the steps to dimension a piece of lumber. I always learned this as FEW TEL, whether doing by hand, machine, or combination. F - flatten one Face on a jointer or by plane E - flatten one Edge on a jointer or by plane W - cut piece to Width, parallel to the prior edge with table saw or hand saw T - plane to even Thickness on planer or hand plane E - square cut one End L - cut to Length

Easter weekend, so no set construction on Saturday. Might get the mower up and running.

When I made my bench from a Tage Frid plan, I used the guideline to make the top even with your palms flat and at your side. Once I got ready to assemble, I realized there was an error in the plan. Fortunately, it just meant cutting some new tenons in the top of the legs. Then I realized why the bench I'd been using, one that I inherited when a prior apartment tenant left it, always gave me a back ache. It was way too short.

I did the reverse, I made the workbench to the appropriate height then raised my table saw up to meet it. When I use other table saws, they're always too low. But I'm a tall guy.

I don't know if this would help but to mark out a hexagon inscribed in a circle. Set a compass and draw a circle Without changing the compass step off points around the circumference Connect the points

A good short article. Answer: it depends on what you are doing. My guideline has always been hip, navel, and nipple.

Here's one, but I've always been amazed how the saws grew so much they didn't fit any more. Maybe signaling the decline of PopWood. https://www.popularwoodworking.com/article/authentic-sloyd-tool-cabinet/

Yes, it was a kit that I did very early in my woodworking journey.

Another choice is to get some acid-free mat board for the background.

I would agree that shellac is a good choice. There is little reason to use polyoneverythane..
