Super Easy but a Little Tricky Ladder Table Plans

Another great project Thanks Ana.
if it is possible, i would also love to see kid two Step Stool plan.

Nice, I was thinking of making a couple stools for the workshop, and may try to modify this one for the height requirements! Perfect! I am seeing bright red!

Definatly my next project, I might even have to work on this one today! I really need a side table/plant stand for my front porch and I cringe every time I see the $30-40 price tag on a tiny little folding end table at the big box store!

I love this idea--simple, but cute! I would also love to see the larger-version ladder shelf that PB sells.

Love it! I have added this to our "to make" list. We will make 2 for our boys room and I am thinking of painting them blue. :) Thanks so much!

Great plan! I could so see this on the front porch, with some plants on it.

How long do the initial boards need to be?

Thanks Ana! I'm going to try to makle a couple of these for my mom for Mother's Day. They will look great on her patio. Got any plans to make plans for a glider or adirondak chairs? Those ould be great for my mom too!

A *PERFECT* plan for a help-mommy-cook stool. Question - Besides the fact that it would be really over-built, is there any reason I can't make the whole thing out of 1x3s? I've got tons left over from the Reclaimed Wood Headboard.

Thanks everyone, there is no reason, Melissa, you couldn't use up your 1x3s. But just remember a 1x2 is like $1.

Love it! My husband is good at puzzles, and I'm less than 5'3", so this may need to be bumped up in our "must build" list ;)

I did mine a little different than the plans since I used treated wood I used a 2x2 and a 1x4, even with the different wood I followed the plans and it worked great. My kids are loving stepping up to the trampoline without my help.

Hi there!

I was thinking of making one of these as a nightstand. What is the average cost of making this (just the materials needed to build, not the tools)?

Thanks!

I love this and it's going to be the perfect Mother's Day gift for my Mom. I've already built it and it has one coat of paint! RED! Can't wait to show you!

I just finished mine last night, its a gift for a dear friend today! I'll let her paint it herself.

Anyway, it only took me about 15 minutes to cut all the pieces, and an evening to put it together!

Thank you!!!

Just built this over an afternoon. Great project - smaller than it looks in the pictures. Maybe it was the screws I used - but initially I had a lot of trouble with the wood splitting as I screwed it together. pre-drilling the holes helped.

Mm-m-m-m I might like to build one of these.

Thanks again Ana for great plans. I have to say that I did not miter the back legs and my font legs ended up being 19" in length but the ladder still works! I really love your plans, you've given me a whole new hobby. Here's the link to my pics:

I have a question: what is the standard length of these boards? Here in Brazil there is no standard length :/

I just got done making 2 nightstands. Thank you so much for the great plans. Here is my blog to see the finished project.
