Build an AMAZING kinetic sand art table - Part 2

I'll show you how to finish building your own kinetic sand art table. We'll add some smart LED lighting & a control panel - set up the software and build an Oak veneered top. I'll then explain how to create your very own drawings... 👇 More info below 👇

Part 1:    • Build a Sisyphus MAGIC SAND Coffee Ta...  

It is incredibly captivating to be beside this simple DIY wooden table as the steel ball magically carves out an endless and ever changing series of beautiful geometric patterns in the sand.

If you’re in the UK I highly recommend Oakdale Crafts as veneer supplier: https://oakdalecrafts.co.uk
I used their European Oak and applied some boiled linseed oil to bring out the grain detail. It looks fantastic.
