In today’s article we will present to you a tutorial that will allow you to convert an old automobile or motorcycle tire into nice and handy coffee table.
Begin by finding an old tire that nobody wants or needs. Keep in mind that the bigger the tire is the bigger your coffee table will be. Once you have found the ideal tire for your project, make sure that you clean it meticulously.
Next head to a thrift store and buy a set of legs on which you will place the tire. The legs can be from an old table, television stand, pot stand and etc. There are no requirements about the material from which the legs are made but due to the fact that tires are heavy it is preferable if you opt for metal legs. Once again clean the legs before you commence the project.
Now get a canister of spray paint and paint the legs in any color that you want. This way your coffee table will blend in with your home design more easily and will have a more stylish appearance. Use as many canisters of spray paint as necessary to properly paint the legs.
Continue my measuring the inner-diameter of the tire. Now get a sheet of plywood and cut two circular covers with which you will covers the middle hole of the tire. Place the covers in place with a strong adhesive. Simply apply the glue on the inner rim of the tire and then place the cover over the hole by applying pressure. Repeat this procedure with the other plywood cover.
Now comes the penultimate stage of your project, the attaching of the tire to the legs. Place the legs in the center of the plywood cover and drill holes. Next screw the legs in place and secure the screws. End the project by painting the topside of your coffee table in the same color with which you painted the legs.
Once you are done with the project open the yellow page at the junk removal section and find the contact details of a company that provides waste removals. You will need to call such a company because you will be too tired to clean the accumulate rubbish. If you are worried about the price of such services don’t be because presently more and more junk removal companies provides their services at cost effective prices.
Once the junk is removed place your new coffee table in your home or man cave and enjoy it.
