Ah, await at that mint as well as the pink!  I dear them!

They are sturdy as well as super good made.
They brand them when y'all guild them, thus they are your exact specifications.
They are steel, sand blasted as well as then  pulverization coated for a thick glossy cover.

Let's become far now!

These legs are good made as well as would live able to back upwardly a bully bargain of weight.

 These legs are bully for amusement centers, couches...they merely involve a picayune half-dozen inch lift.
 I decided to brand a cakestand alongside hairpin legs!
They would brand a bully breakfast tray for bed too!
These hairpin legs produce all the work.  This is a snap!
Here's how:

eleven 1/8 foursquare pino board
Four Turquoise 6" Hairpin Legs (from DIY Hairpin Legs)
Eight #6 5/8" woods screws
Eight #10 washers
Sand paper
Drill

 The length of the brackets is 10 inches, as well as the width of the pino I had was eleven 1/8",
thus I used the tabular array saw to cutting a square.
Then lined upwardly the legs on the pine.

I had this pino on hand...when it's summertime time,
I desire to swap it out for a big thick log slice.
Because the pino board is solely 3/4" thick, it requires shorter screws than the
1 inch they include alongside the legs.  This plant for a cake stand upwardly because at that topographic point wont live a
lot of pressure level on it.  If it was for a bench, tabular array or desk, I'd recommend a sturdier board
thus it doesn't buckle as well as suspension when weight it on it.
But, for a cake stand, it's perfect!

 I merely screwed it inwards twice per leg, but at that topographic point are airplane pilot holes for four screws per leg.
I used washers to brand certain they didn't apparel through the holes.

 Turn it over as well as a perfect picayune stand.
 This is what I purpose for a clear coat to proceed it nice, protected, sanitary as well as slow to clean.


I intend it's adorable as well as desire a 3-tiered marriage ceremony cake on it!

For now, this cheesecake volition bring to do!
