DIY: A turntable table for real music lovers

Summer is the ideal time to roll up our sleeves and start here and there renovating a room, furniture or just putting something together ourselves. Musical souls, lovers of nostalgia and old gramophone records can relax and make a table out of gramophone records for their special corner.

Well-being is always the most important thing in our favorite corner, but it can definitely be lacking. Maybe a coffee table? Our small territory, be it in a student room or in a multi-room apartment that we share with roommates, can this time beautify with a table made of a gramophone record, on which we will calmly place a cup of morning coffee, and without a doubt, one of the guests will surely be impressed by it.

We need a vinyl record, which we don't mind using for this purpose. If we don't have it at home, let's catch a garage sale or look for it at a fair. We don't need a cover, but if it's interesting, we can of course use it as room decoration. In the basement, in the attic or in grandma's shed, find a flower stand that will match the diameter of the panel, in the garage a hot glue gun and plastic sticks, and then the work can begin.

First clean the panel gently with a damp paper towel and then with a dry cloth. We must make sure that the vinyl is completely dry before attaching it to the stand. Meanwhile, heat up the hot glue gun and, when ready to create, apply it in thin layers of hot plastic over the entire surface of the flower stand. Place the board immediately, while the glue is still hot, on the stand, making sure that it is placed in the middle. Let's wait for the glue to cool and TA-DA, the new table is ready!
Now let's quickly grab a cup of coffee, put on your favorite record and enjoy.
