4x4 Truss Beam Table w/Gray Finish

Submitted by Pokeysmom on Thu, 02/13/2014 - 11:32

We followed the 4x4 Truss Beam Table instructions but changed the overall dimensions to account for our narrow space that is a thoroughfare through our house. We made the table 29" x 65". This was our first furniture construction project and we are very pleased with the results.

Estimated Cost
$400 (including the cost of the Kreg Jig)
Estimated Time Investment
Week Long Project (20 Hours or More)
Finish Used
Finished with a custom stain from Sherwin Williams. Started with their Rustic Gray color but had them color match the stain on the fir and pine to create the best match. Applied one coat for one minute and wiped off. Used a satin water-based polyurethane (3 coats).
