MANUFACTURE A GAMELLE DOOR

All furniture can have a DIY equivalence and some are more interesting than others, especially for the quality / price ratio. For this DIY, we present to you a bowl holder for your dear pets inspired by the creation of @clemaroundthecorner from the blog of the same name, Clem Around The corner. In a few steps, make a bowl to your liking and at a lower cost !

EQUIPMENT

• A pine cleat 160 cm long and 7 cm wide
• A pencil
• A bracket
• A saw
• Medium grit sandpaper
• 8 brackets
• 32 self-drilling screws
• A brush
• Colorless varnish
• 4 square feet 15 cm
• 16 hinge screws 20 mm
• A screwdriver
• Two stainless steel bowls with a diameter of 21.5 cm

STEP 1

Along your cleat and using a pencil and a square, trace the lines to the dimensions to be cut out then cut 5 pieces of wood to obtain :

• 2 cleats 60 cm long
• 3 cleats 20 cm long

Tip : A miter box is ideal for ensuring a straight cut.

STEP 2

Sand each cleat, insisting on the ends to smooth the wood and its roughness using medium-grit sandpaper.

STEP 3

Arrange the 2 large 60 cm cleats parallel, leaving some space to position the 3 20 cm cleats inside. Have one at each end and one in the center. The small cleats are positioned inside the large cleats.

Using 8 brackets, 32 self-supporting screws and the screwdriver, fix the different cleats together.

STEP 4

Varnish the entire structure then let it dry for the time indicated using the colorless varnish and the brush.

STEP 5

Position the 4 square feet 15 cm at each corner of the structure then secure them using a screwdriver and 16 hinge screws 20mm.

STEP 6

Turn the assembly over and position the 2 bowls in the holes.
