Chipboard. Chipboard is not used for the entire structure, but for the manufacture of a number of parts (lids, boxes, shelves). For legs, solid wood blanks should be used. Minus - particleboard absorbs moisture well, which leads to its delamination and deformation.

Tree. Most often, homemade craftsmen make a round table with their own hands from natural wooden bars and boards. This is mainly pine, beech, oak, ash harvesting. In this case, pine is considered the best material, because even beginners in this business can process it without problems.
