INVISIBLE PHONE CHARGER and Outdoor Kitchen Build on a Deck!

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

The visible part of the bar top will be made from composite decking. To integrate a wireless phone charger, a circular area needs to be precisely routed out from the underside of a composite decking board. Create a jig by drilling a circular hole in a piece of scrap wood using a hole saw. This jig will guide the router for a consistent, recessed cut.

Goal: Prepare a jig to recess the wireless charger

Tools and materials

  • Cordless Drill DeWalt — Operating the hole saw
  • Hole Saw — Cutting the circular hole in the jig
  • Scrap Wood — Creating the router jig

phone just like that and it charges it so what I'm going to try to do is Route out as much as possible of our bar top material which is going to be this decorator's Costa so that this can be recessed just under the surface and hopefully it's not too thick where when we're done you can just lay your phone on top of the bar top and it's going to charge so I think it'd be really cool you know you always need to charge up those phones so uh simple enough if it works and we'll see I don't know so what I'm doing I'm making a jig for the router so I can get uh that nice Circle recessed cut in there and again we'll see if this works I don't know if it
