DIY Wooden Table Top - Wooden Side Table Project. Written by Erica Policow Try to get a variety of colors, but be sure they're all the same thickness. (For a 19- by 17-inch table like this one, you'll need about 16 yardsticks.) STEP 1: To figure out how best to align the sticks, create a template of the tabletop by tracing it onto a sheet of paper.
Arrange the rulers on the template, marking where you'll need to cut so they fit the width and length of the table. STEP 2: Once you know where each ruler segment will go, make the cuts with a hacksaw or small electric saw. STEP 3: Starting at one corner, attach one of the ruler segments to the top of the table lengthwise by hammering a flat-head nail in at each end.
STEP 4: Apply several layers of Zinsser clear shellac ($4.79; doitbest.com) over the yardsticks with a wide brush, according to the can's directions. Dropular.
