Today we will look at how to make an original table from a regular car wheel. Making a table from a tire with your own hands does not require large costs, and it can also be used as a coffee table or a banquet.
How to make a cool table from car wheels
we need:
- new or used tire;
- 2 circles made of MDF 6 mm thick, 55 cm in diameter;
- six self-tapping screws;
- puncher;
- screwdriver;
- glue gun or super glue;
- screw cord 5 meters long, 10 mm thick;
- cloth for cleaning tires;
- scissors;
- varnish;
- brush.
Step 1.
Clean the tires from dirt with a dry cloth, if the tire is heavily soiled, then rinse it and let it dry.
Step 2.
Place 1 MDF wheel on the car tire and make 3 holes around the edges at 3 distant points so that the hammer drill penetrates the rubber.
Step 3.
Using a screwdriver and self-tapping screws, fix the MDF to the bus. Do the same for each of the holes and repeat steps 1, 2 and 3 on the other side of the tire..
Step 4.
Using glue, secure one end of the cord to the center of the MDF circle.
Step 5.
Holding with your hand, continue to glue the cord in a spiral, remembering to use the required amount of glue before each round.
Step 6.
After covering the entire MDF circle with cord, do the same around the edges of the car tire..
Step 7.
Rotate the tire and continue covering it with cord until you reach the edge of the second MDF circle.
Step 8.
After the cord covers the entire surface of the tire, cut off the remainder of the rope with scissors and fasten the end of the cord tightly.
Step 9.
Apply varnish to the brush and cover the entire surface where the cord was used. Let the varnish dry completely.
