About This Project

I made this from scratch. I didn't follow a plan. I didn't pay for any of the materials either. I know a guy who has a saw mill and was able to score the top. I got the legs down my self from a tree in the woods. I didn't stain any of the wood either. I just put polycrylic on it. Overall I think it took about 4 hours to complete. More if you count the time waiting on the clear coat to dry. I notched out the legs to fit the skirts. The skirt is make up of wood that I planned to 1" thick and kreg jigged together. I then kreg jigged the skirt to the table top. I hope you like it.

Estimated Time Investment: 
Afternoon Project (3-6 Hours)
Required Skill Level: 
Intermediate
Type of Wood:

It was dried naturally.

It was dried naturally.

I do wood working for therapy, not a hobby.

Therapy

It's more like therapy for me, too. I'm glad you find it helpful. From a very grateful widow of a Vietnam vet, I thank you for your service.
