mottled old door panels? Old wood? Doesn't matter. Turning decay into magic, the old door panel can be turned into treasure after simple transformation, and diy can be made into a practical workbench. Do you believe it? Let's take a look at the diy production workbench for the transformation of old door panels!

Tools and materials

Demolition of old door panels and pine strips; Saw, chisel, pine bar, beeswax, hot air gun (for waxing).

Step1. wash the old door panels and let them dry in the shade.

The color of this door panel is ok. It is made of large black paint, which is definitely older than that made of synthetic paint. In addition, the surface of the door panel is also very flat, and there are no nails except the installation part of the door lock. When I saw it on the side of the road, I took it away decisively.

Step2, use a saw and chisel as a supporting frame.

Since I got the instruction from an old carpenter who has been in business for more than 41 years, mortising with a chisel has become a pleasure. Fast and easy.

Step3. chamfer the outside of the table leg with an edge trimmer.

From here, you can see that the bracket is connected with two wide boards.

Post-event improvement scheme: If the upper part of the side is also made of wide wooden boards, the structure will be more stable.

because the length direction is split, it will never shake. Wide boards placed on the side can keep the width direction completely unchanged.

Step4, put on the door panel, although a little worried, it is actually quite stable!

Step5, the effect of beeswax on the desktop.
