Good afternoon,
I've done most of the design work for the big table and new member
storage
The big table will be 70cm high (sitting desk height), on four corner
legs, and will be 8'x4' (2440x1220). The surface for this is to be
decided, but can either be our standard interior varnish finish, or
something else if someone wants (and can find) something better, e.g.
cutting mat stuff.
The member storage should take 36x 35L really useful boxes on 6 shelves
(excluding the "long items" top shelf), and will fit under the cable
rack near the windows in R1, so it'll be about 2m tall. It's a very
similar design to the old "narrow" shelving but slightly adapted.
Bill of materials:
- Table: 1x 8x4 sheet MDF (18mm), 5x 2x3 2.4m CLS
- Shelving: 2x 8x4 sheet MDF (18mm) precut, 8x 2x3 2.4m CLS
- Sundries like screws, filler, varnish etc
The estimate for the table (as we already have the MDF and some CLS) is
£14.
The estimate for the shelving is about £100, £64 of which is the MDF.
Total initial purchase:
- 2x MDF sheets cut down in store to total 6x 2440x404 in store (£64)
- 12x lengths 2x3 CLS (£42)
- Whatever screws we need once I've had a dig around
I'd like to approve up to £150 to include any sundries we need (we tend
to keep a lot around) but we'll only spend what we reasonably have to.
Prices are B&Q for MDF as they do cutting and Wickes for CLS; that can
be had anywhere that we can find decent stock though.
Regards
Lissa
