I spent a lot of time looking at photos that my wife tagged on pinterest, most from builders who frequent Ana's site. I learned a lot just from looking.
I stole particular ideas from Ana, Tommie and Ellie, and another site that I can't find right now, but they really did the trestle / farmhouse hybrid idea first and I just modified their idea a bit. If anyone has seen their site, please remind me so I can give credit where it is due!
I didn't really use a plan other than having a general idea of what I wanted the size of the table to be. I believe it came out to about 102" x 44"
I built 6 chairs and the bench.
All is built out of construction grade lumber, and gets lots of compliments.
The table came together in a solid weekend, the bench took a couple of evenings, and the chairs...those chairs took forever to cut out, shape, assemble, and finish.
