Make a Ping Pong Net for Any Table, Anywhere

Step 5: Create the First Net Stand

This is the step where the two stands are no longer made exactly the same.  I'm going to start with the easier of the two.  You need to take one of the stands that you made in the third step.  That will be the only stand we are working with in this step.

The first part is making a small mark for where to drill.  That mark should be right above the other hole.  You may want to look at the pictures to figure out the position.  Then you have to drill a 1/2" hole there.  Only drill the hole about 0.75" deep...Not all the way through.
Next, dry-fit one of the dowels.  If it doesn't fit perfectly, you need to go back to the belt sander and sand more off.  It should fit in there, but not move too freely.
Once you have it dry-fit, you can take some wood glue and glue it in there.

You are now done the first net stand.  Great work.
