The plans were pretty simple to follow, I did change the way I set the bottom shelf in because it wasn't very stable and I was worried it would eventually dip in the middle. I screwed some pieces of scrap wood onto the back to hold it together better and then built a ledge for it to sit on around the bottom. After that I screwed it into the and BAM.. much more stable..
Estimated Cost
$85
Estimated Time Investment
Weekend Project (10-20 Hours)
Finish Used
Minwax Provincial for the top(two coats) and shelf with a semi gloss finish(3 coats). Glidden Buttermilk matte(3 coats) for the frame.
Recommended Skill Level

To find this, Under Plans, I did a search with Rustic X as the search term, and under Plans by Project type selected Coffee Table and clicked "Apply".
Ana has a lot of Rustic X plans, so you can even make lovely matching pieces if you like. Happy building!
