A few things that would be helpful - power tools! Nail gun, drill and table/miter saw would all be helpful. I also would stain the pieces beforehand and touch up after. But overall, SO pleased with the final result.

I love the table thanks using a miter saw made it quick and easy took me about 4 hours to build. Thanks

My son used to have a flimsy headboard and frame that drove me crazy so I decided to build him a bed from these plans. I couldn't be happier with his bed. I used pocket holes and everything has been holding up quite nicely. Love these plans.

Check it out on iamhardware.com ! Thanks Ana for the plans!

My husband and I recently bought our first home right outside of Austin, Texas. One of my favorite features of the house were the beautiful bay windows in the kitchen. I wanted to have a table that accented the windows and created a centerpiece in the kitchen. I stumbled upon this blog, found the Farmhouse Table, and decided I was going to build this table! With the help of my dad, I was able to complete my first wood-working project, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the way it turned out!

Modified the plan in order to use 12 inch drawer slides and to fit the 1X24x48 project panel found at Lowes. The 2 inch swivel casters and drawer hardware were found at Home Depot.

Simple to build, took longer to paint it than it did to build it!

Great Plan from Tommy and Ellie Farmhouse Table. Have built 3 for family members for holiday gifts. I thought I found his plans from on here but don't remember where. So all I do to refer back is google tommy and Ellie Farmhouse table.

Fun and challenging build, be sure to square the edges of lumber before assembly to get a better fit

Built this table using the Ana White plans everything worked great.

I used the idea of the Farmhouse Table and Coffee Table to build this table and benches. I used simple whitewood for the table because it's cheap. This table doesn't take long to build, only a few hours. But this time I used oil-based stain and had to swap out a few boards because they were warped so it took longer than expected.

Native mason bees can be housed to protect them from pests, diseases and predators. They are excellent early season pollinators for orchards and other early season fruit crops. Mason bees can do more work than non-native honey bees, even on a cloudy rainy day. Also, mason bees are solitary non-aggressive bees, which makes them ideal for folks with pets or children. The initial step for the care of mason bees is to build a nest block or mason bee house.

This was my first project and I had a ton of fun working on it. My grandpa has a professional wood shop, but as he has gotten older it hasn't been used as frequently. Most of my time was spent fixing broken equipment. I made a couple wrong cuts and had to go back to the store. All in all I love my new bed, I spent quality time with my grandpa, and it is a solid piece of furniture built for a fraction of what a bed should cost.

I'm just a novic so this was a challenge and lots of fun! I Made this one and just finished. I used oak plywood, oak lid, rocklar hinges, stained and poly coated ever thing about 3 times. Looks great!  Those hinges a expensive but work great.
