I did not follow any plans for this project. I literally just sketched out a few ideas and went with one of them based on the size I wanted. I used some pine project boards 3/4in that were already ripped to 16 inches. I cut them with my circular saw to size and connected everything with some wood glue and a kreg jig. I bought the $20 kreg jig and it worked perfectly I also bought the driver, clamp and kreg 1 1/2 inch wood screws. I used polyshades dark oak i think for the finish. I made it a little darker than I wanted but overall I am very happy considering I had an old computer desk sitting there before. I plan to make a farmhouse table in the future. I love this site thank you for the inspiration everyone!
