What you need for this project:
1) One or two circular plywood rounds, about 12" in diameter and 3/4 to 1" thick
2) A rectangular base about 12x18 inches and 1/2" to 3/4" thick
3) Some 9/16" screws
4) Optional: Some rubber no-slip rug material for the base
5) Optional: Some corrugated toolbox liner material for the top
6) A nail
7) A brake - see the closeups and the photo below.
8) The turntable mechanism. 8-10" is adequate for a 12" table.
9) Some contact cement and a disposable brush.
TOOLS
a) Screwdriver
b) Drill for drilling the pilot hole and the clearance hole
Here is a closeup of that window lock that makes the brake. It's important that it be THREADED so that you turn the knurled knob and it goes in and out, so it can press against the table. There are some that are sprung or unthreaded. Don't use one of those!
