EQUIPMENT

• Screwdriver
• Varnish
• Sandpaper
• 2 feet thin flat iron made to measure black L58cm H35cm
• 4 boards 6cm wide, 6cm deep, 1m20 long
• 11 boards 3.5cm wide, 6cm deep, 1.20m long
• 2 cleats 58 cm wide
• 30 hinge screws 45 mm for the cleat
• 10 hinge screws 45 mm for the feet

TRAY

STEP 0 :

Wood is a material that works, we recommend that you leave the boards for a week in your interior so that they adapt to the humidity and heat of your home. This will prevent them from swelling later and thus creating gaps in your board..

STEP 1 :

Sand each board to remove any irregularities and splinters from the wood to make them smooth.

STEP 2 :

Varnish the boards to protect them from the little clumsiness of everyday life.

STEP 3 :

Place the boards next to each other, taking care to align them so that the finished thickness of the board is equal.

STEP 4 :

Create a staggered game with the feet to give character to the edge of your board.

STEP 5 :

Once the arrangement of the boards suits you, position the cleats 20 cm from the edge and screw the cleats with the 30 hinge screws 45 mm .

THE LEGS

STEP 6 :

Position the flat iron feet against your cleat, centering them crosswise in relation to the table top. Then, screw the feet with the 10 hinge screws 45 mm.

STEP 7 :

Flip your brand new, freshly made coffee table.

It's your turn to embark on the DIY manufacture of the coffee table of your dreams !
