I used a combo of a couple of Ana White's sofa table plans and I changed them so that two tables would fit together at the angle of my sectional couch. I used pennies on the top and covered in epoxy resin.

Great afternoon project. This was my first build!  

First project from Ana White plans. Thanks Ana, looks great in my coffee bar.

This thing is AMAZING! If I was able to build as often as I do laundry, I would have a much more impressive brag list! Thank you for the plan!

Our first project from Ana-White.com - but certainly not our last! This preschool picnic table was an easy introduction for a couple of newbies. Our one-and-a-half year-old uses it all the time. Thank you!

love Ana!  We moved from the city to a late 1800's Victorian farm house with no closets, no basement, no storage!  This was a great Woodshop 101 project for my husband and me, and gave us extra space in the kitchen. Can't wait to do another Ana project. 

I like the clean lines of this little shelf. Not sure whether it will become a plant stand or bed side table in the spare room. Found it quite tricky to put the bottom shelf in the right spot - even though the legs were fastened with 2 screws each at the top there was still enough give so that pushing a leg out or in a bit created a wobble. Ended up putting glue on and with the help of an extra pair of hands and a spirit level put the shelf into place by trial & error, making sure the whole thing stood nice and firm on the ground. Put on some clamps & came back the next day to put the screws in. Used a plug cutter to cut 'covers' for my screws from off-cuts of the same timber, but didn't quite manage to get the grain aligned so you still see them. Made these from decking boards (very close in dimensions to 1x3 boards) sold as 'forest reds' in the hardware store, which are a mix of eucalypt hard woods.

Great plans. Easy project -- made some mods and saved a bundle. My son is stoked!

Thanks SOOOOOOO much for the Plans. I had fun building this and my Mother will be so happy to have it.

I'm sure she will be spending more time on the deck this summer.

Cheers, from Toronto

Chris,

This chair was built part of a love seat and table set.

Built a set, used this as an entertainment stand below the TV, mactching coffee table done and end table to go with it. Altered the plans (dimensions) a little to accommodate my room. Love this site! Thanks Ana!

Had just watched the new Peanuts movie.Kind of liked it.

I made this charcuterie board for my niece and her family as a thank you for giving me an old miter saw they were not using… I have made a few now as gifts, and realize ….
Something “ made” means so much more to the recipient,
Because in the making we give our heartfelt generosity…
The stain is Watco food safe finish in hazelnut.

After building my daughter's beds and some outdoor day beds, I finally got around to building a bed for my husband and I. I altered the plans to a king size bed. I added a second 2x4 in the middle for support and around the inside edges as I used the box springs to make the bed taller. Using the kreg jig really made this project so easy. I also used 1x8's instead of 2x8's because I couldn't find those in Hawaii anywhere, except pressure treated wood. It still turned out great.
Thanks for the wonderful plans!

Using the Farmhouse Table plans I just modified them to the dimensions I thought would be best for my space. Tried mortise/tenon joinery on the legs and that took a lot of time since it was my first time. The table top is put together with pocket hole joinery. I love my Kreg Jig.
