In the ReBuilding Center, there were loads of 30cm square tile boards mainly used as flooring.
I thought this simple color and texture is a good match with the natural surface of wood. I personally like this balance between cute boards on the top and blunt legs. The reason I used the Simpson Strong-tie as the stool legs was to make this completely from the materials found in the RBC.
Because tiles and wood I found were generally of useful size, I came up with the idea to make a pot mat and gave it to my host parents together with a handmade spatula.
Step
1. Cut the woods
2. Glue the parts together
3. Cramp them and let it dry
4. Screw the Simpson Strong-Tie into the top board
Idea for a pot mat design
I gave the pot mat to my host parents for their birthday.
Farewell cake from my host family was put on it!!!
