A while ago I posted about 7 Quart KA I got from work.
Fortunately for me it is an awesome machine. Unfortunatelly I have no place to put it and to keep it.
Fortunately we had a conversation here about cart/tables which gave me an idea to use one for myself to put my KA on it. Unfortunatelly the ones I found were extremely expensive.
Fortunately I found this metal wire-rack (picture below) cart in Sam’s club for only $50 bucks, ok fine $52. Unfortunatelly the wire rack doesn’t seem to be a good table top.
Fortunately I have a table saw and I cut this piece of oak plywood (picture below) to make it into table top. Unfortunately, I do not know if this is good enough as it is.
Few, finally I came to the advice part. What do you think, is this thick enough? I could double or even triple the thickness by cutting more pieces and gluing them together. Also should I finish this with some sort of lacquer or just rub some mineral oil on and be done with it? I don’t think I am going to use the KA on the cart, just not stable enough with the wheels on and there is no outlet nearby anyways. I would just put on the countertop for the time I work with it.
