Moding the table

Step 2: Moding the table

The size of the opening on the table top was determined by the size of the plastic container I was planning to use as an insert.

With a measuring tape mark the centre point on the table.
Place the plastic container in the centre and mark around around it where to cut.
I have a shortage of decent power tools at home so to cut out the part of the table top I had to drill holes at the corners and used a hand saw to cut the rest (unfortunately leaving some rough and uneven edges).
*Once your remove the part of the table top, there is a cardboard honey comb that needs to be cut out as well.
Sand the edges smooth and check that the plastic container fits.
Assemble the legs of the table if you haven't done so already.

*Keep the top piece that you cut out, it can be used as the base for a mosaic inlay (see Step 7)
