Rustic X Coffee Table

Submitted by OWJ3 on Mon, 09/08/2014 - 20:10

New to woodworking, first Ana-White plan.  Changed the dimensions a little to fit our living room decor.  Bottom shelf is 2x8's.  Ground through the learning curve but pretty happy with the end result.  Hand distressed the project.  Kreg jig made it much easier.  Love this site and looking forward to building new projects!

Hello!

 

I'm looking to scale this project down for my living room as well - do you mind sharing your final dimensions?

Thanks!

Top surface:  (4) 2x6's cut 42" long - which will be 22" wide;

Breadboards:  (2) 2x4's cut 22" long - Top surface becomes just shy of 49" in overall length;

Bottom surface:  (2) 2x8's cut 36" long;

White frame: 18" wide to the very outside edges,

                      43" long to the very outside edges,

Hope that helps.
