DIY

HOW TO:

Make a pallet coffee table What you need: 1 or 2 wooden pallets

STEP ONE: Source one or two wooden shipping pallets, make sure these are in good condition! You don’t want your new coffee table to fall apart as soon as you rest your feet on it!

*available from Adams Sawmilling

Screwdriver to mount wheels Sandpaper Paint brush and paint roller 4 Bolt wheels Screws to fit your wheels Paint- your chosen colour Optional glass plate for top

STEP TWO:

With nails or screws, secure parts of the pallet that are split or coming apart if any. Following this by using a medium grade sand paper to sand the surfaces of the pallet.

TIP: Use a foam sanding sponge to get an even finish

STEP THREE:

If you are going for a rustic look now is the time to secure your wheels with screws. If you intend on painting your new coffee table then leave securing your wheels untill the paint is dry.

STEP FOUR: To paint your prepared coffee table consult your local hardware store on what colours you should use.

I used a simple black paint and a roller and brush to apply my paint but you may want to try something a bit funkier!

STEP FIVE:

F NO INA TI L CE

It is extremely important to leave your paint to dry away from children or pets. Once dry decorate with a glass top or leave as is! Finally sit back and enjoy your new coffee table!

Home Improvement

Preparing your house for sale Last week we looked at the types of paint and their suitability of application. Now that the weather seems to be a bit more settled it is time to get the house looking sharp, ready for market.

The main differences between exterior and interior Is the variety of surfaces and the paint is more expensive due to the UV qualities, and containing more pigment for colour and more resin for moisture resistance and durability.

With proper preparation, a clean surface and the right paint it is a job you can easily handle yourself, making it the ideal DIY job.

The best time to paint is now before it gets too hot as too much heat makes your surface dry out too quickly, which may cause the paint to fail.

Ideally paint just after sunrise when the dew has dried off, follow the sun around your home and paint on the shady side.

Paint manufacturers recommend painting in temperatures between 10°C and 40°C and not in direct sunlight.

Like interior paints, exterior paints are available in either water-based of solventbased enamel.

Water-based paints offer a number of advantages as they are easy to apply, dry rapidly and there is an easy clean-up.

Acrylic gloss paints are commonly used on weatherboard homes and exterior

cladding as a gloss finish offers more durability and longevity.

Generally solvent-based enamel paints are preferred wherever a tough hard-wearing surface is required. It takes a little extra time to apply but can be well worth the trouble on high wear areas like windows and doors and are less likely to stick.

As with interior enamels the trend is leaning towards water-based exterior enamels which come in a variety of sheen levels, dry fast and offer easy water washup. As with any new product, technology is improving all the time, as will their longevity. But among the trades, debate between water-based and solvent-based paints is well and truly alive.

As with any paint job, you need good preparation. If you are lucky and your house has had regular maintenance, it may only need a wash-down and a light sand, but if it has fallen short of attention it may require scraping back and sanding.

Or if the paint has lost all adhesion it may require a chemical strip to remove all the old defective paint and start again.

Waterblasting is a great place to start.

The condition of the surface will dictate the pressure required and is the ideal way to see what defects require attention.

Waterblast top down – the roof we will cover in a separate article – starting with the spoutings and facias then soffits and

Include anything that is to be painted.

Now is the time to replace any rotten, split or cracked boards or any defects that will effect the longevity of the paint job.

Don’t be in a hurry to get painting an attend to the defects – you will regret not doing it when the house is painted and looking fantastic, apart from those bits that now stand out and catch your eye every time.
