Take a deep breath in... then out. Relax as the warm water soothes your muscles. Then look at this freaking amazing end table I made! And this was only my third project ever! Great plans and easy to make.
***Only necessary change to plans was for the decorative Xs. The 2x2s must for the decorative Xs on the small version of the end table must be AT LEAST 25" not 22" as the plans call for. The 22" 2x2 did not reach diagonally (especially when making miter cuts).
I used pre-conditioner on the pine/douglas fir wood before applying the stain.
