Next up is the bases for the speaker stands. I bought 2" galvanized pipet Home Depot which I put on the wood lathe and used sandpaper and scotchbrite pads to get to the brushed finish I liked. The bases are L-shaped connectors which are secured into their own compartment with epoxy.
Below, you can see plywood was cut to secure the L-shaped connector which the poxy was then poured into to secure it even better.
Here it is with stuff all over it as weight to help keep the posts aligned while the poxy dries.
Once dried, a topcap was secured over the top to allow for more support for the MDF which will be attached to the top and bottom sides.
Below you can see the inside of the table with holes for the other end of the L-shaped connector. This is where wires will feed from down the pipes into the inner compartment of the table.
There's also an additional hole on one side where the power will be fed from the foot of one of the legs to the inner compartment here.
