I have been building things from recycled fencing we acquire from our business for a while, but this is the first large table I have made. I used recycled backing rails and pickets to make the Farmhouse table from Ana's plans. I shortened the length of the table but otherwise pretty much stuck to the plans. I did use different wood for the top then Ana had, I used old white painted backing rails that are basically 2x4's for the base of the table and I used old gray weathered pickets for the table top. It isn't perfect and my notch's could have been more presice, but I am still happy with the outcome.

none, I will let he buyer decide. I used old wood to start with and I love that look. I do refinish newer pieces to look old, but with this I don't have too!
