Lazy Susan: a Cross-Grained Top on Rollers and a Centre Pivot

A lazy Susan is a turntable set on a table so dishes can be passed round. In Howell's self-waiting table of 1891 the turning top is made of two thicknesses of wood glued with the grain crossed, mounted on a central pivot and running on rollers. This free-standing version puts the rollers and pivot on a base disc; the sizes are ours. The picture: Howell's patent drawing, US 464,073.

Set the pivot

Glue a hardwood dowel into a hole at the centre of the underside of the top. Lower the top so the dowel drops into the base and the top rests on the four rollers. It should turn at a light touch.
