What you need:

- pallets

- saw

- hammer, nails

- abrasive paper

- glaze

- screws, carriage bolts

- caster wheels

 

From the First Pallet Create the Top of the Table

The standard pallet (80x120cm/31,5x47,25in) was too big for our livingroom, so we sawed the first pallet in half.

From the Second Pallet Need the Slats in Order to the Top of the Table Won't Be So Gappy

So remove slats from the second pallet with help of hammer and chisel then remove all the rusty nails. Or use an ironsaw but in this case the nails stay in the wood.

Position the picked slats with nails between the slats of the top.

Here need the rest 2 slats from this second pallet to strengthen the legs of the table - and will be also a holder.

From the Third Pallet Create Table Legs

The next step is the polishing. Cut a piece of abrasive paper - to the easy polishing use a small piece of slat. But the even easier polishing use a grinding machine :) And polish the surface of the coffee table smooth.

 

After that paint the surface with wood stain. It's the most entertaining part :)

 

Almost the last thing, hole where the components will join each other. Use carriage bolts in order to the coffee table will be durable and fix the parts.

 

Finally position the caster wheels on the bottom of the table and fix themwith screws.

 

AND your unique coffee table is ready :)
