Basic Carpentry - Cut wood and screw in brackets. (Materials Provided)

$150

Dickson ACT, Australia

27th May 2026

I need someone to construct two basic bits of furniture. I have all the dimensions and materials (except wood glue). I have attached reference images of both. I planned to make them myself but don't have the tools to do so. 1: A thin console table to go behind the couch. It is a long thin panel with three legs (already cut to size), all just attached with brackets and screws. It also needs a hole cut out on top for an outlet to sit in (we have the outlet). 2: A waterfall edge coffee table to go over an ottoman. Essentially just a panel of wood with two legs to sit over an ottoman. Panel and legs need to be cut and attached at a 45 degree angle with brackets screwed in for extra support. Again, I have all the materials except wood glue. I can bring everything to you for construction or you're welcome to bring tools to my home in Dickson. Nothing needs sanded or oiled. Should be a pretty simple job for someone with the tools, shouldn't take longer than 90 min. Aside from reference images, I've attached some images of the materials I have in case that's helpful.

Cutting edge off wooden rail 35mm thick x2

$60

Weston ACT, Australia

4th Feb 2026

We have a deck rail made of wood. We are about to get roller shutters installed and the deck rail needs to be shorter to fit the roller shutters. The company installing them said we would need to arrange this. You would need to use your own tools. The rail is approximately 35 mm thick. The piece to remove would be approximately 140 × 140 × 35 mm. There will be 2 pieces to cut off, one at each end of the rail. I have attached 3 photos, but there are only 2 bits to cut. We need to get this done before the roller shutters are installed. I don't have a date yet, but it will be in the next few weeks. Probably the sooner, the better.

Completed task successfully thanks. Happy with the results.
