Rustic 'X' Desk

Submitted by jphysc on Sun, 01/19/2014 - 18:45

This was a great project. I had some trouble with getting the X's perfectly connected (due to off square boards) and had to use some wood filler here and there. Beyond that, everything came together really well. The longest part was getting the finish just right.

Estimated Time Investment
Weekend Project (10-20 Hours)
Finish Used
For the base I used Miniwax Jacobian, spray painted in white, and painted in an off-white SW color. Used 80 grit sandpaper to get the look and finish just right. The table top is just jacobian. Everything has 2 coats of polyurethane.
