DIY: Make OSB sideboard yourself, by Gijs

Description

We have made a sideboard for the living room in our new house. This from OSB hout with double planks to give it a robust look. The wood was sanded and varnished after assembling the cabinet. The cabinet is made to measure to fit IKEA Callax cabinets, here we have four of them, but they are still being painted and lacquered in beautiful colors.

Making a sideboard from OSB

First of all I made a small sketch on paper to get an idea of what the whole would look like. I then calculated the dimensions of all planks and ordered them on TOSIZE.co.uk. Picked up screws, glue, paint and sandpaper from the hardware store. Now that all the stuff is in the house, I and my girlfriend joined all the boards together on Saturday according to my drawing. Ensured that all screws are invisible by countersinking them and placing them in invisible places.

Finished format: What are the outer dimensions?

The width of the case is 260.0 cm, the height of the case is 78.0 cm and the depth of the case is 38.0 cm.
