Egg stand
Instruction
Information
A minimalist egg stand. It will fit most standard sized eggs.
It is easy to assemble, uses little material, and a great beginner project.
Instruction
Step1: Laser cut all the parts
Cut out all of the required parts.
If you wish, you can paint them at this stage. Or you can the whole stand once assembled.
You will also require wood glue for assembly.
Step2: Glue the arms to the base
Apply a bit of glue to the arms, where they attach to the base. See the pictures. Do not apply too much glue. You can use a toothpick to apply the glue.
Insert the arm in the base. Push it all the way to the bottom. Wipe off any excess glue.
Repeat for all four arms.
Step3: Glue the top ring
Apply a bit of glue to the top of the arms, where the ring will go. Also apply a bit of glue to the cutouts in the ring.
Attach the ring to the arms.
Make sure everything is aligned and straight.
If you did not account for kerf when cutting the parts, the cutouts may be too big. This is not an issue, just apply a bit of extra glue to fill in the gaps. The glue should hold everything together even if not cured. If it doesn't, you can use a bit of tape to hold the stand together until the glue cures.
Step4: Wait for the glue to cure
Wait for the glue to fully cure.
Congratulations, you have assembled the egg stand.
