My son and I had a blast building this table last October. I have been meaning to write and thank you for the great plans. We took the suggestion of staggering the legs for better access and it turned out great. I also used deck boards for the top to help reduce weight and they were already slightly curved on the sides which made sanding easier. Thank you!
My cost includes a nice Kreg Jig set up (approx $100)

Love this tv table! It was my husband's first project from Ana's plans, and it turned out really well. The most difficult part was deciding how to make the sliding barn door hardware, since paying $70 for hardware when the wood cost about that much seemed crazy. My husband built it and I stained it, Sunbleached by Varathane. A nice blue-grey.

Designed and built vanity, mirrors, plumbed, tiled, and wired and installed lights.

We had a big ugly frameless mirror in one of restrooms that builder had fitted as standard. Took it down and made this framed mirror instead.

Made from 4 by 1 with routed recess for mirror. Edges are 3 by 1s

Finished in Rustoleum Driftwood and two coats of Minwax Satin WIpe On Poly.

It is quite heavy so I fitted it to the wall with a French cleat made from two scraps of wood which also means it fits flush to the wall.

This rustic farm bed is handcrafted from reclaimed weathered barn wood. The plank design and mixture of tones and textures give it a distinct rustic feel. Each piece celebrates the unadorned beauty of salvaged wood. Our reclaimed barn farmhouse bed is truly transitional. And now the best part, it can be made in any size needed -- King, Queen, Full or Twin.

visit us at www.madeatthisplace.blogspot.com, for details. We built a large platform off the ground and just put a house on top. Then gradually extended the design.

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!
