Washing Machine and Dryer pedestal / Stand: A DIY Happiness!

Step 3 Make the Cut

1. Cut the plywood-- Top Panel and Side panels.

2. Cut the 2" x4"s.

3. Connect the one 25" with the two 13". You can use nails or screws which ever you feel comfortable. I use screws this way I prevent the would from cracking. Also I drilled a hole before I screwed it in.

4. Do the same with the other 25" and two 13".

5. Connect the 2 x 4's into the side panels. Secure using screws or nails.

6. Place the top panel in place. Secure using screws and nails.

7. To cover the back, measure from each end of the side panels. That will be your size. Height will still be 15".

Nice design.  This morning I went to Home Depot, got them to cut the materials while there, built it and put primer coat on by 2:45 pm all in the same day.  It is sturdy.  Thank you.

Thank you. Welcome to the joys of doing laundry again hahaha!  I would love to see your finished product and maybe with your permission post them at the end of this tutorial so others can see as well how easy and fun and helpful building this pedestal can be. And if anyone has built one of these, if you'd like to share your finished product, I'd like to also put them on the tutorial as well.  Again, enjoy doing your laundry. lol
