It will only take you 2 hours tops to assemble our dressing table, and then all that’s left to do is to paint in your choice of finish and colour.
You will need: 1 of 400 x 1200mm - top
2 of 170 x 1080mm - front/back aprons 2 of 170 x 360mm - side aprons 4 of 60 x 800mm - front legs 4 of 40 x 800mm - side legs 10 Plastic corner brackets Wood glue
Drill/Driver + assorted bits Jigsaw and fretsaw (thin) blade 25mm cut screws Wood filler
*For all sections use PG Bison 16mm SupaWood
Here’s how: Making the legs 1. The legs are slightly angled on one side. To create the angled edge, measure down 150mm from the top on all 8 leg sections and draw a line across.
2. On the bottom end of the 4 front sections (60mm wide) make a pencil mark at 40mm. Draw a line from the 150mm mark to the 40mm mark.
3. On the bottom end of the 4 side sections (40mm wide) make a pencil mark at 20mm. Draw a line from the 150mm mark to the 40mm mark.
4. Place the front sections on a flat surface, arranging them as they will be assembled. EG. The straight edge of each leg must be on the outside.
5. Run a bead of glue along the top of the outside edge and place the
straight side section on top. 20mm from the top and 10mm from the bottom screw a corner bracket in place.
Making the frame 6. Measure up 20mm from the bottom edge on both front and back aprons and draw a line across. Use a template the draw a curve at both sides - as shown on the image left. Cut along this line with a jigsaw.
7. On the front/back aprons measure in 360mm from sides and draw a line. On the middle section, measure up 20mm from the bottom edge and draw a line. Use this line to cut the middle design.
8. On the side aprons measure up 20mm from the bottom edge and draw a line across. Use a template the draw a curve at both sides - as shown on the image left. Cut along this line with a jigsaw.
