Kitchen Island for a Friend

Submitted by Jake on Fri, 07/06/2012 - 08:41

I made this kitchen island for a friend who wanted it unfinished. I got the plan from Ana's site but it was submitted by Brookifer86. I made no changes to the original plans. I did splurge on a project top from Lowes at $22 and the stair stiles (i think you call them that) for the legs at about $2 each. What a really nice project and so easy to build. Hardest part was the 22 cross members on the bottom shelf. I think I will make another one but try to add a small drawer.

The lady that I made the table for has wanted to start building. So I made one small easily fixed mistake for her to fix. When she gets here to pick the island up I will hand her safety glasses, hearing protection, square, pencil and tape measure and let her go to work. She is also bringing shaker pegs that she can install. Should be fun.
