Sarah Nadarajah is more than just a maker and owner of Rocky Canyon Rustic. She’s also an inspiration to folks who want to tackle custom projects but lack the confidence to get started. Host Kevin O’Connor visits her shop to talk about her content, but also to join her in building a custom end table with some of Sarah’s favorite techniques.
Where to find it?
To cut the 3/4” plywood [homedepot.sjv.io/eKWE71] to size, Sarah uses a circular saw [homedepot.sjv.io/4P7669]. To shape the round edges of the shelves, she uses a jigsaw [homedepot.sjv.io/zNORYm]. She then uses a pocket hole jig [homedepot.sjv.io/g1E6dg] and drills holes for screws to attach the middle divider and back piece. To cover the holes, she uses pocket hole plugs [homedepot.sjv.io/WqkdoJ] and wood glue [homedepot.sjv.io/KjPqLn] and sands with 220-grit sandpaper [homedepot.sjv.io/Nkm047] to make it flush.
Sarah uses a hot iron [homedepot.sjv.io/4PNmV0] to adhere edge banding [homedepot.sjv.io/LXNmkV] to the edges of the wood to create a finished look.
To finish it off, Sarah applies a walnut stain [homedepot.sjv.io/PyDVxj] with a brush [homedepot.sjv.io/AWN3ZK] and wipes away any excess.
