Instructions
Begin by cutting the table top material to about 0.9 by 0.4 meters or
to preference
Using a small balsa saw or small knife cut balsa to form border around
the table top material
Using wood glue clamp balsa wood 3 pieces high according to wood glue
instructions (about 1 hr.)
Using larger clamps and wood glue clamp the 4 -3" high legs (cut from
4x4 wood plank) to the corners on the bottom of the tabletop, if the
middle of the table bends when force is applied attach an additional leg to
the middle of the table
Attach adjustable feet by drilling into the bottom of the legs using a
drill bit sized according to the instructions on the adjustable feet
packaging
Sand off any residual wood glue on the table. It is especially important
to sand down any imperfections on the table top or "rink" area to ensure a
smooth playing surface for the pucks.
Optional: round the corners by obatining plastic siding cut to the
desired height and bent to fit in the corner. Use epoxy and clamps to attach
the siding to the corners of the tabletop.
