This large lazy Susan I stained a dark walnut with a satin polyurethane sealer. You can match your dining table, cabinets, or kitchen, whether elegant or rustic. Here I did a more rustic look for this large lazy Susan. If you use the right process for staining wood and process for applying polyurethane, you can create a beautiful large wood lazy Susan that looks professionally made with little cost.

The process for edge gluing wood Is one I learned from a master woodworker and furniture maker, yes, she too was a female woodworker! She also taught me how to dowel wood and how to make a round panel. I can also recess the top round panel if you want a low profile lazy Susan.

I guess the one thing that really makes the difference in looks is the finish. I use the stain, stain, seal, seal, sand, seal method. Allow 24 hours between each step. Sand using 320 grit after each 24 hour drying session..... except for the last one....LOL! I love the grain in pine wood, which is what is used to make 2 x 4. You can use spruce but it's a little soft for me. With the standard pine you can stain just about any color. I have even painted several that turned out great.

If you want a thinner profile, or low profile lazy Susan, then simply plane down to 1 inch or whatever thickness you wish before edge gluing. I like the 1.5 inch thickness for the larger lazy Susan turntables because they are more sturdy and hold up to larger loads. They also have a nice rustic look which is very popular these days.

Thank you guys for looking and have a blessed day. ~ Steph
