Re: Recycled coffee table

@BillieJo Thanks. Tools used were

  • metal detector(always good when working with recycled timber)
  • thicknesser
  • dust extractor
  • Dewalt cold cut chop
  • mig welder
  • angle grinder
  • plunge saw with a guide
  • sander
  • drill
  • clamps
  • Festool Domino

I have collected my tools over a long period of time and all of the above are not needed to do the job but do make it easier when you have them. You definately need a welder, angle grider, saw, drill and clamps. Hope this helps.

Re: Recycled coffee table

Hi @Starkers_17 

 

What an awesome project start to finish.

 

I love the fact you used recycled materials and turned it into a magnificent peice.

 

I'm saving up for a thicknesser and am so excited to give it a go.

 

Great idea for a metal detector. 

 

Love to see more of your upcoming work

 

Kind regards Rob 👍
