Rebuild your grooming table

 

This use to be my old mid west grooming table and it held up for 5 years.

But leaving it out in the rain and drying wet Newfoundlands on it, caused the wood to rot.

I had to start using it with a towel on it,

 because the plastic rubber mat had grooves and the dirt settled in.

 

 

New price $88 plus shipping and handling = $106.64

 

Don't throw out your old rotten grooming table.

*Simply detach the legs (use rustoleum if they are rusty)

Go to Home Depot, Lowes or Hardware store and purchase the following.

* Good quality slab of wood 3/4 thick, 24 x 36 (cut to size) $19.00

* Minwax stain, 8oz (over 20 colors) $4.49

* Helmsman clear satin, polyurethane $14.00

* Scotch's 3M grated (feel like sand paper) strips, 2 @ $12.00 for both

 

Getting to work

* cut, stain and seal your table top. (I used 3 coats of each)

* spray the legs with rustoleum

 

*when the legs and top are dry (2-3 days depending on # of coats used)

you can attaché your legs to the table top.

 

 

* apply the non skid strips and re fasten the old rubber side strip.

And your done, total cost $50

A project that was simple, cost less than a new table

and I know this table will now last longer the 5 years.

 

 

Mom, now you can groom until the cows come home.
