Is it hard to build your own desk?

Let me answer the question on the title first. It’s not difficult at all. You just need to buy a gadget.

When you want to buy an ordinary desk, you open the major online malls and find that they are all over $100.

Although these desks look beautiful, some have a lot of cool features, but all you want is just an ordinary table. You don’t have such a large budget at all.

Then why not try making a desk yourself?

In fact, the process is much easier than you think. All you need is a gadget, hairpin leg, and the sturdy hairpin leg costs less than $20.

The whole process takes only four steps:

(1) Find the wood that fits your table

You can use almost any kind of wood to make your own furniture: from wood-based panels to recycled wood to natural panels.

(2) Clean up your wood

We need to polish the wood into smooth and clean wood for use.

(3) Choose the suitable hairpin legs

There are three factors to consider when selecting hairpin legs: Size, quantity, and strength.

The convenience of the hairpin legs is reflected incisively and vividly in this step, you just need to prepare some screws, then tighten them and you are done!
