Resting it like this made drilling the shelves in easier to do!

Add Dowels

After the shelves were in place, I added two wooden dowels to the base to make sure it wouldn't rock. If you have any mistakes, just use some electric tape and spray paint to cover any errors.

    Came out nice only problem I see these hula hoops are super flimsy and not not hold together well, is another piece missing to make them sturdy for the weight of the wood?

    You don't seem to address the bottom 2 pieces of tubing(?) that prevents the whole thing from rolling. What was used and how was it attached to the hula hoop. Also how did you cover the screw heads that hold the shelves.
