This is the first project I have ever built. It was super satisfying to make.

Awesome space, thank you for sharing your first project, love the finish!
Kid's Country Bench - stretched
![](/sites/default/files/3154821104_1359339440_0.jpg)
We needed a bench to hold shoes and bags on the foyer, and this plan fit the bill. I stretched the bench one foot so 3 kids could sit on it and to add one more cubby. I used pocket holes everywhere I could, so I had to modify the assembly order. We're excited to start using our new bench!

Game Cabinet
We have very little storage in our house and wanted someplace to store board games. This works great in the dining room. I made the hardware using patio door rollers and used my jigsaw to cut steel and aluminum bars to fit. I hammered the ends of the track in a curve and put a track on the bottom of the cabinet to keep the doors more flush against the cabinet. I spray-painted all the metal and bolts to match. It is 36" high, 13" deep and 63" long. I didn't use the center board in the front because I wanted to accomodate for larger games.

Computer Desk with hutch
![](/sites/default/files/Genia%27s%20Computer%20desk%20%26%20hutch_0.jpg)
My cousin needed a computer desk but wanted it to look like a piece of furniture when not in use since they have limited space. The left side stores her tower, the right side has a pullout shelf for her printer and storage for printer paper & supplies. She works with 2 monitors so the center on the hutch will accommodate both but be hidden when she isn't working. This was a fun project and using Shelfhelp made it a joy to build. They will be my "go-to" place when building large pieces of furniture.

Wood Tilt Out Trash Can
![](/sites/default/files/3154821258_1359476179.jpg)
I was having trouble with my dogs getting into the trash. So I did a search for wooden trash cans and came up on Anna's site! That was just what I was looking for. The door was a little tricky. But now that I have done it I think the next one will go a lot easier!

I tried to pick out the boards I thought had the prettiest knotts.
From a pile of wood to an beautifull extendable x leg dining table and benches
![](/sites/default/files/10805605_10152816013105239_2386115523653530221_n.jpg)
My girl wanted a long sturdy extendable x-legged dining table and benches for our big family and guest for our new house. Extendable from 2,5 meter to about 5,2 meter. Sorry for the picture qualities. Can post pictures later when the table is placed in the new house. Right now its in the basement waiting to be moved ;)

I built 7 of these for christmas gifts this year. 4 of them from cheap pine, and 3 from reclaimed barn wood. Everyone was very pleased with their presents.

I love it! Where did you find the hardware for it? I have been looking for something pretty that is also narrow enough and haven't had much luck.
New Kitchen Table
![](/sites/default/files/1_25.jpg)
We recently moved from a 530 sq ft rental house to a 1700 sq ft rental house. The one kitchen table that we had in the little place was needed in our library/craft/homeschool room so I needed something knew for the kitchen. My 8 year old daughter helped a lot (she loves using the Kreig Jig).
I love how this (my second wood working project ever!) came out.
Thanks for making it so easy to create beautiful and custom furniture for me and my family!

This is my first brag post. Any tips on why the photo is sideways and there are weird links in odd spots?
Thanks!

sideways photo
When my photos posted sideways, I used microsoft paint to rotate and saved as a new photo. This seemed to solve the issue.
Mostly Made With Reclaimed Materials
![](/sites/default/files/WP_20161226_16_13_50_Rich_0.jpg)
I made these nightstands with reclaimed siding and fir flooring, and scrap wood from a remodel they will ultimately furnish. I found the matching knobs for $1 each at a building materials salvage yard.
Double X barn door

This is a sliding barn door I built for some friends. It's constructed from standard pine boards and premade tongue and groove beadboard planks.

Simple Modern Outdoor Sectional
![](/sites/default/files/Patio%20Furniture1.jpg)
So glad these plans were posted so that I could build my own outdoor sectional. I built two armless and two corner/end pieces. I used cedar with American Walnut stain and clear/satin spar urethane. I purchased the cushions online. They only had 24x24"; so for the back cushions, I used a seam ripper to open the cushion, cut the foam and extra fabric, and re-sew.
