How to make a table with the effect of infinity yourself
The price of such an element of furniture is not happy, and the purchase is not always available for an ordinary resident of the country. However, you can get an unusual little thing if you know how to handle tools. Just make a backlit table yourself.
To do this, you will need the following materials and tools:
- boards for the table;
- mirror and glass (the latter can be replaced with a translucent mirror);
- LED Strip Light;
- self-tapping screws;
- screwdriver.
All wires are mounted on the table legs.
First of all, you need to develop a drawing, taking into account all the dimensions of the future piece of furniture. From MDF (or wooden boards), mirrors, you need to make blanks, according to your calculations. There should be 3 pieces of wooden templates with an inner hole, one of which has a larger internal diameter about 1 cm. This is where the LED strip will be located. The obtained blanks must be glued together, not forgetting to insert one mirror between the two lower templates. Then you need to carefully smooth all sides and corners.
Next you need to attach the cover. Better if it will be removable. This will provide access to electricity. This cover for the future table can be designed for your interior. It can be painted or decorated in any other way.
In the opening of the table top, you need to drill the holes that are necessary for mounting the LEDs. Now you can insert the tape into this opening and fix it in a way convenient for you. The best option is to use glue, the effectiveness of which you will be 100% sure.
Now you should cover all this with a second mirror, translucent.
All wires are led out through the legs of the table. To do this, they must be with a wide section and through holes.
In conclusion
To enhance the effect or to give more originality between any two mirrors, you can put absolutely any object. This is to ensure that the table with the effect of infinity fits perfectly into the overall concept of your room.
In addition, you can safely combine LEDs of various colors. Connecting pieces of tape is not difficult even for an inexperienced master.
A similar effect can be used not only for making a table, but also for decorating doors or any other surfaces. A table with the effect of infinity, made with your own hands, can be only the beginning.
