First Project - Sawhorse Table

Submitted by scot price on Fri, 07/08/2011 - 10:36

This was my first project that I took on from this site, and I was very happy with the result.

I used the plans from the Simple Sawhorse Table, and adjusted to our needs.

The only real adjustments were instead of using a solid top, I used 2 2x10's. I also made the total length 90" on top.

Very great site, and hope to be building more soon.

Finish Used
For finishing this project I sanded, then put a layer of Amber Shellac down. After that dried, I sanded with a finer grit. I then put a layer of rosewood stain down, and let it dry without wiping excess off. Finally, I sanded the entire table with 0000 steel wool.
