Instructions

Measure and cut the legs with a miter saw. Your back legs are going to be shorter because

you have to put the wheels on. This measurement will be based on what size wheels you get

and where you place them.

Measure and build the frame. This is using the 2 x 6 x 10 wood. Ours is 48″ long and I added

2 inches to the width making it 26″ wide.

Next, you’ll screw the frame to the legs

Measure and cut the deck boards.

Use spacers to evenly space out the boards if you’re planning on using this to bathe your

Newfoundland

Measure and cut the arms.Cut out a hole for the copper pipe using a hole saw (1-1/4) Our pipe is 30 inches long and 39

inches from the deck boards.

Put end caps on if you want the pipe to stay in place.

Seal the wood as directed on the can of sealer.

Notes

Please keep in mind that I didn’t add specific measurements for cutting the wood because

mine was custom made to my size.

Most normal grooming tables for big dogs are going to be 48″L x 24″W

This table is 48"L x 26"W

Height is 22" because I'm 5'2"

For the grooming arm you don't have to use a copper pipe. Other materials that can be used are wood, metal, or even PVC pipe.
