Hey brains trust!
Would love your thoughts/advice/recommendations on the best way to build this desk!
So I bought a Specrite timber acacia panel, cut with my jigsaw to make the shape I wanted, sanded it back and then I used Feast & Watson liming white stain on top.
A few things:
1. For the legs, I’m going to use these four round side tables from Kmart, however I’m just wondering what you think the best way to attach them would be so that I can detach them for moving purposes. I was originally going to use liquid nails but wanting a better solution so that I can detach them. Also, do you think it would look more streamline if I detached the two bottom tops off the side tables? Will take rubber stoppers off too.
2. I think I’m liking the colour of the legs more than the tabletop that I’ve stained in the liming white now. Any suggestions on stains that I could restain the tabletop in to match the legs colour? And if so, do I need to sand the tabletop back and restain in new colour? Or, do you think I should leave as is as it’s not much of a difference?
Looking forward to your thoughts! ![]()
