Burnt X Farm Table

Submitted by jeffwill on Thu, 11/05/2015 - 18:34

This is built off the Farm House X Table but I changed a few things around. The lower support beam has been raised up to the middle of the table. The table height has been raised to 40". The top of the table is floating. The top most 2x4s are secured directly to the top. They are also notched out a little to match the notch I put into the top support beam. The 2x4 is the female side and the support beam is the male. I finished the table by burning the top with a hand held torch and 2 coats or varnish. The base of the table has been white washed with 1 good coat.

Estimated Cost
Estimated cost of the wood, screws, varnish, and white wash is just shy of $90. I did buy extra screws, varnish, and white wash for future projects though.
Estimated Time Investment
Day Project (6-9 Hours)
Finish Used
burnt with varnish on top and 1 liberal coat white wash on base.
