Charging Station With Individual Switches

Hello, here's another project of a charging station, based on various found around here, special thanks to PROD for the switches idea. It´s very basic, in terms of woodkrafting and electricity.

Material Used

I've just used some spares around the house:

- Wine wooden box and furniture felt pads

- A piece of plywood (from the back of a frame)

- A piece of EVA foam

- Few brass gromits and pushpins

- Wire, "female" outlets, wire conectors, terminal blocks, rocker switches, a/c outlet.

- basic tools

Preparing the Box

Picked a wine wooden box and inserted in the bottom four Tap-In Felt Furniture Pads.

Drilled a hole in the back and aplied a gromit to the A/C cable.

Didn´t made any protection on the wood, but i would like to apply in the future some varnish to give a rustic look to the box.

Cut the Plywood, and Apply the EVA Foam

Cut the plywood and the EVA foam at the same size in a way that it can enter the box tightly. Fix the EVA foam with four pushpins to the plywood.

Apply the shelf holders further down in the front of the box , so the plywood lid stays in diagonal.

Drill the Holes and Apply the Gormits

Drilled four holes in the EVA foam with the brass gromit itself and in the plywood with a wood drill. I've made a slot from the hole to the edge of the plywood (under the EVA) and "opened" 2 gormits so the 2 larger outlets can pass through the holes.
