And as like with the desk, I also added some rafter stcraps from the cut-off bin at a hardware store. This time the scraps came from the Home Depot, and again were a perfect fit for what I was trying to build.

The after wrappong it was some pine slats, I applied the same epoxy resin finsh as I used on the desk to keep it consistent, and because I had some leftover from the desk project.

The next step was to build a base for the nightstand in a similar fashin as the desk pedestal, but on a slightly smaller scale. And of course using the same materials as the desk.
