If you like to DIY, it may have crossed your mind to build your dining table. Only basic carpentry skills are required for this, as it is an easy and simple job and you will love the result. To make a wooden table, follow these steps step by step and you will enjoy a beautiful, practical piece of furniture made mostly by yourself.
When making your wooden table, remember that it is a living material that will expand and contract with moisture and temperature changes, especially if you choose to make the table out of solid wood.
To make a wooden table you will need several tools: a jigsaw, electric drill, wood drill bit, clamps, chisel and hammer, ruler, screws, clamps, wood glue, sander, varnish or paint, strips of wood and a board of solid wood.
If you want a rustic finish, like something out of a country house, once you’ve assembled the structure on one side and the top on the other, use a stamp and make various marks. You can also use a gouge and hammer to “bite” the edges to make them more irregular. You can also use a cutter. Then sand well to prevent chips from digging in and apply a coloured stain or wax to give it that aged look. Judean bitumen is also an option with great results.
