How To Make A Lazy Susan

Do you have a lot of stuff that needs to be stored, but don't have the space? A lazy susan is the perfect solution! This handy piece of furniture can help you organize your home in a snap.




In this 7-step guide, we will show you how to make your very own lazy susan:


  1. The first thing you will need to do is gather your supplies. You will need a piece of wood that is at least 24 inches in diameter, a drill, screws, sandpaper, paint or stain, and a sealer. Once you have all of your supplies, you are ready to start!

  2. Begin by cutting your piece of wood to the desired size. If you are using a round piece of wood, you can skip this step.

  3. Drill four holes in the corners of the wood. These holes will be used to attach the lazy susan to the base.

  4. It's time to sand your wood. This will help create a smooth surface for painting or staining.

  5. Once the wood is sanded, you can paint or stain it to your liking. Be sure to let the paint or stain dry completely before moving on to the next step.

  6. Now it is time to attach the lazy susan to the base. Screw the four screws into the holes that you drilled earlier. Make sure that the screws are tight so that the lazy susan does not move around.

  7. The last step is to seal the wood. This will help protect it from moisture and other elements. Allow the sealer to dry completely before using your new lazy susan!




How do you make a 2 tier lazy susan?


A 2 tier lazy susan can be made in a similar manner as the one described above. The only difference is that you will need two pieces of wood, each 24 inches in diameter. Drill four screws into each piece of wood, making sure that the screws are tight. You can then paint or stain the wood to your liking. Finally, seal the wood to protect it from moisture. Allow the sealer to dry completely before using your new lazy susan!
