Building the war room of my dreams
Redesign
With the tabletops as designed being too heavy and unwieldy for me I had to do a little redesign as well as a bit of cutting.
I had always wanted more tools … so with a bit of research and help of youtube I got myself a mini circular saw.
Things went *bzzzzzt* *bzzzzt* (well … with ear protection… ). and two boards were four.
final design

frameworkWell … that is what I tell folk.
In reality I kind of ff-up the frame so it was a bit wider than the table was supposed to be.
To ‘fix’ it I added the new one light blue one in the center of the framework image.
Don’t forget to measure in the real world.
The two inner wooden planks were designed to hold the Kallax in place, which meant building the frame around the furniture made things a bit easier.
framework v2 in progress
All of this kind of works, but the gaps between the plates had me thinking.
Can I cover them and fix them in place ?
Yes I can … the DIY shop had plastic I-shaped beams to do exactly that.
So that’s up next.
