Step
1--Measure the center of the circular plywood base and drill a 1-inch wide hole in the
center of the base.
Step
2--Drill four 1-inch holes around the edges of the circular plywood base. The four holes
should be evenly spaced around the outside and should line up exactly with the center hole.
Use the measuring tape to ensure that the holes are evenly spaced.
Step
3--Coat the end of the 60-inch long wood dowel with wood glue and insert it in the center
hole. Allow approximately 6 inches of the wood dowel to stick out from the bottom of the
plywood base.
Step
4--Attach the ponies or other seats that you have purchased to the 36-inch long wood
dowels. It is best to glue the ponies or seats to the dowels using the wood glue. Attach the
seats approximately 24 inches from the base of the wood dowels.
Step
5--Coat the ends of the 36-inch long wood dowels with wood glue and insert them into the
holes around the edge of the circular base. The ends of the wood dowels should be flush
with the holes.
Step
6--Measure the center of the circular tablecloth or lace covering, and glue the center to the
top of the center dowel. Stretch the covering out and glue the ends of the covering to the
tops of the 36-inch long dowels.
