A wide variety of items can be useful in the household, especially when it comes to the kitchen, where the hostess often needs help. Among the various kitchen accessories that make life easier in the family, there are hot coasters on which you can put hot pots, plates, mugs and kettles without damaging the table surface. You don't have to buy a hot stand in the store - you can make a wooden stand by hand in just an hour of free time.
Instructions
Step 1
Use bamboo or a wooden board as material, as well as strong threads and beads. Prepare tools - a jigsaw for sawing wood, a drill capable of working at low speeds, and a set of thin drills with a diameter of 1-1.5 mm. Instead of a thin drill, you can use an engraver or boring machine.
Step 2
You will need a board 1 cm thick and about 18-20 cm long, and about 13-15 cm wide. First, draw a drawing of the future stand, determining how many sticks it will consist of. Transfer the drawing to your board, marking it out for sawing.
Step 3
Fix the board and use a jigsaw to cut out the required number of sticks, and then take a drill with a thin drill and carefully drill two holes in each stick - one hole at both ends.
Step 4
After that, take sandpaper and carefully sand the surface of the boards, and then sand them with fine sandpaper. Prepare decorative beads with a diameter of 4-5 mm and start assembling the stand - through the holes in the planks, successively pull a strong thread or fishing line, putting beads on the line between the planks.
Step 5
With the thread fully threaded through all the planks, tighten it and tie it around the wood, and then it can be used in the kitchen.
