Make your own pedestal easily, by Paulus

Description of Paul

It is a white plant table, the table is made of 22 mm blank MDF. The pieces are connected to each other with dowels and glue (a precise job) and secured for 24 hours with glue clamps. I pre-treated the end sides with wood filler. Painted two to three times with white paint 9010 satin.

How I made this project

The wood was/is delivered exactly to size by TOSIZE.pt With the photos: photo 1 is the overview of sizes and some applications. Photo 2 is the prototype in cardboard (7 x 3 cm) photo 3 is the wood delivered to size photo 4 assembled pedestal still in glue clamps photo 5 a ready-to-paint example photo 6 first layer painted photo 7 application as lamp base I first tried to connect everything with dowel joints, but it is almost impossible without a professional aperture. In the end I only doweled the feet and put the rest together with (countersunk) screws. It is a bit more filling and sanding, but less than is necessary with crooked dowel joints.
