Plywood end table
Michelle and I grabbed some scrap wood from work – a lot of good plywood. They were mostly odd shapes being cut-offs, but there was a decent amount of various lengths.
I’ve seen some plywood edge projects and have liked the look of the plys all lined up, so decided to redo our $15 end table in our livingroom.
The first thing I did was rip the plywood into long strips about 2″ wide. This would become the final width of the table top and legs.
After gluing the strips together, I planed the surfaces and sanded them. A lot of sanding.
I then attached the legs with dowels and finished off with a few coats of wipe on poly.
I am happy with the way it turned out.
I may go back and fill in some of the gaps within the plys and add another few coats of poly, but for now, that is enough sanding.
