The well-laid out plans from this site made it a pleasure to build. I used pine for everything and stained with Rust-Oleum Early American. Also, I did three coats of Minwax Clear Satin Polycrylic. My wife and I decided to use 8 hooks because we have two young children who could not reach the top row of hooks.
Built from Plan(s)
Estimated Cost
$120
Estimated Time Investment
Weekend Project (10-20 Hours)
Finish Used
Minwax Wood Conditioner, Rust-Oleum Early American, Minwax Clear Satin Polycrylic. I recommend doing small sections when doing the wood conditioner. I tried doing too much at one time and had to rush to make sure I got the stain on before the conditioner dried. Also, I used 3 coats of the poly.
