This plan details the construction of a robust, heavy-duty pedestal for a Fisher & Paykel condenser dryer. The design prioritizes strength and stability to safely support the appliance's static weight and operational vibrations. Built with standard 90x45mm treated pine and a 12mm plywood top, it uses simple butt joint construction suitable for beginners. To ensure maximum stability and meet your final height requirement of 450mm, this plan uses a table-style construction with full-length legs. The frame rails are attached to the sides of the legs, creating a much stronger structure than placing the frame on top of the legs. This required adjusting the leg length from the initial 400mm estimate to 438mm to perfectly achieve the 450mm total height when combined with the 12mm plywood top.
