Bedside table for TV with own hands

Modern bedside tables for TV most often made of chipboard, plastic with metal and glass. Self-made production will require certain skills, but the television stand with your own hands will turn out to be unusual.

How to make a bedside table for a TV?

There are quite a few kinds of bedside tables under the TV. We offer the option of a traditional stand with a shelf for the console.

  1. Everything begins with the drawing of the nightstand under the TV. On the sheet of a paper it is necessary to draw a sketch of a table-top.
  2. Then we transfer it to a chipboard sheet or something like that.
  3. According to the size of the nightstand under the TV from the bar we cut out the boards of the required length.
  4. We glue the workpieces together.
  5. Next, we cut out two such blanks.
  6. With the help of an electric jig we cut out the figured edges of the blanks. Leave a couple of mm on the allowances.
