My husband and father adjusted the dimensions slightly on the farmhouse table and finished it out with mitered edges. The end result is beautiful and fits our big family well. We can seat 12 around our 8ft by 4ft table.
Für den Bau dieses Spiegels benötigen Sie eine Unterlage aus MDF. Eine dünne MDF-Platte zum Beispiel wäre Optimal.

Nachdem die Holzscheiben verklebt sind, kleben Sie den Spiegel fest in die Mitte des Spiegels. The whole can same method also with a eckigen mirror and wood scheiben made. Schickt uns euer Exemplar und wir veröffentlichen die Bilder hier auf dieser Seite. Falls Sie auch so einen Spiegel haben möchten, aber keine Zeit, um sich ein Angebot zu machen. Wir produzieren Ihnen den Spiegel dann.
Lieben Gruß und viel Spaß bei der Ausübung des Projektes. Wir sind auf eure Bilder gespannt!
Was very easy to put together even with pocket screws.

The wife and I kept going to these primitive shops and seeing these benches selling for $65-$85. I saw these and knew I could build it for way less. This is my rendition of the 5 board bench, only difference is I took the top support beam and make it into a shoe shelf.
My husband and I spent Christmas day building this piece and I spent the next day staining. This was our first build together and I am in love with it. The piece looks great under the TV in our bedroom. Just the perfect accent piece I needed to finish off our recently redecorated bedroom. Next we will be tackling furniture for our spare bedroom that currently only has a bed and a mirror....
customer wanted a set of adirondack chairs for their husband. Who is a big Detroit Tiger fan. Followed the plans as is except for the back. It is supported by 2 1x3 running up the lines of the D. It is very sturdy. Once comment about dimensions, our lumber is not exact. 1x8 is 3/4x7.25 for instance. I had to compensate for that.. Thanks for the plans
Used you basic 2x4 bench / couch plan but added a sloped backrest and more 2x4s across for more support.

This was our first project! It was a lot of fun and a big learning experience for my husband and I. It has been used DAILY for our shoes, bags, etc.
Inspired by the hanging day bed- everything was built as directed- then 5in X 3/8in lag bols used to secure to wall, as well as eye bolts and rope. Extra support added with ladder

I am wondering if you put both a box spring and mattress on this? Is there any way to see what it looked like all finished and set up? We are thinking of doing this is our daughters room so that we can put up two, but she may not go for it if it has no box spring. :)
Made from Easy Kitchen Island Plan With a few changes.
Body built from pine, Top surface built of oak.
The shelves were shortened by half To make room for two chairs.
Body painted with varnish polished sporadically.
Top Painted with three layers of varnish after polishing.
Fortunate enough to live on a beautiful river, my wife and I decided we were done bringing the folding chairs out for each weekly bon fire. Our three girls love s’mores and we wanted a great atmosphere with a place to easily grab wood and snacks in the dark while we enjoyed the outdoors. The combination of plans took us about a week to finish. The kids were away for the weekend and we rented an auger to drill the post holes. This proved to be the most difficult part of the project. It took nearly the whole weekend to dig out the unexpected granite and all the patience that we had in reserves. Once the posts were set, it was only a slightly uphill battle.
My wife made the bench in the time it took to return the auger and come home. The fire pit benches were also a pleasure to assemble and the most functional part of the project. I suspect the whole thing would have been faster if the large posts were easier to cut through. That treated lumber can eat saw blades! When setting the top posts it was also a two ladder and two person job. They were quite heavy and a little nerve wracking to set if you don’t love heights and a heavy load. We would do this project again in a heartbeat as it is a feature in our yard and makes for many enjoyable family and friend gatherings. The fire pit bench top is also great for hosting the entire bbq meal assortments to select from.
For a 4-H project this year, I want to make the Play Farmer’s Market Stand. I currently work at a daycare and I think the kids would love it.
We had just moved from OH to NC and needed a bed for our daughter. We decided to build rather than buy when we found out the prices. We built it out of pine since we plan to upgrade to something bigger in a few years. The plans were easy to follow and we made a few changes to fit our needs and the trundle we built under it for stuffed animal storage for now. The process was simple since we bought all the material in one place. We glued each piece and used screws to hold it all together. We purchased brackets from online to allow us to remove the rails from the head and foot board for moving. Sanded each piece with 180 than 220 grit sandpaper and wood filled all the cracks for a smooth finish.
This doll bunk bed was constructed by my twin sons (age 9) and me as a Christmas present for their younger sister.
The tools used were:
Circular saw with Eurekazone tracks
Random orbital sander
320 grit sanding sponge
HVLP 4-stage sprayer
Dowelmax
Kreg Jig
18 gauge brad nailer
Various Clamps
Oscillating Multitool
Chisels
The Eurekazone tracks allowed me to easily rip the thicker stock for the ladder steps and also allowed for boards to be cut to identical lengths as necessary.
The Dowelmax was used for the head and foot of the bed. It allows for very close alignment of the faces. A quick sanding allowed for straight gap-free alignment. It also allowed the boys to easily drill straight.
The Kreg jig was used with two screws at the end of each board. This allowed the use of the Kreg 90 degree clamp in one of the holes. The holes were filled with the Kreg paint-grade plugs. The top boards were aligned by setting the bed upside down on the bench for alignment.
The plywood was attached using a gel cyanoacrylate glue with a few brads.
The oscillating multitool was used to flush cut the Kreg plugs. The little bit of plug left after that was trimmed off with a chisel.

I was looking at the closeups of your joints. The dowel joints are seamless. I used dowels when I made this bunk for my kids, but I didn't use "blind" dowels like you. I used simply drilled a hole through the joint, inserted a dowel, and trimmed off the extra (so called "through" dowel joints). I painted it so you don't see the dowel, but you're joints look nearly perfect and can be used with a clear finish. I'm envious.

The real key was the Dowelmax jig. You can easily get 1/100th of an inch accuracy across reference faces (basically as accurate as your fingertips can sense). After that, it's just a bit of sanding.
Using the pocket holes was a bit trickier for both alignment and filling in the holes. Using two pockets holes so that one could be used for clamping made the alignment easier. I would have skipped the pocket holes entirely, but I had dowel interference problems if I used dowels for both the ends and the sides. Pocket hole screws easily screwed into the end dowels that were hidden. The pocket holes would also make a clear finish more difficult (I'd probably stain it first to blend the inserts with the normal wood).
We get so many compliments on this table! Adjusted it to be a little shorter and narrower for our space.
I built this project for my daughter’s birthday. Her laundry area was a mess in her kitchen and she had no place to fold the clothes. This laundry station keeps her laundry area tidy, and it looks great!
This was an old handmade tool trunk/carpenter's chest my dad gave me many years ago. It had been painted over many times and was quite ugly. I decided to strip it and refinish it. It is made of yellow pine and has many dings and countless nails in it. I think it just adds to the charm. It is now a coffee table.

I will have to draw something up. Or at least give the measurements. It really wasn't created to be a piece of furniture, though I use it as a coffee table. It really is heavy because it uses 2 layers of wood on the exterior and interior and then an abundance of nails were used and driven through both layers and then bent over. It made the refinish quite a challenge. Try sanding around all of those bent over nails w/o tearing your sandpaper. I also quit counting at 5 layers of paint. Much of it wasn't today's latex which removes quite easily. It was given to me by my deceased father so every minute I spent on it was sure worth it.
I have one more similar to it that I plan on refinishing in the near future. I am also on the hunt for an antique factory cart.
Pretty much just followed the directions. I used scraps to build this except for the plywood base.
We used the site plans and then added on more trim (front, around the roof and the corner pieces - plus "crown", "baseboard" and "chair rail".
This is a room that we redid so that our two boys that shared the room could have a room that felt more age appropriate and allowed for better function. They have always had to share a room but have never had the space to have desks or much seating. So we hung both their beds from the wall and the ceiling allowing them to have some space under the beds for storage and a small desk. Having the beds up high keeps the area under the bed much cleaner. We also built a window seat for storage and used pallet wood to create a feature wall. The stairs between the beds also have storage accessible from both sides for books and toys. We did the same basic thing in the other boys room but had to do two sets of stairs because of the layout of the room. The stairs were built from a modified version of the Sweet Pea Garden Bunk Bed Stairs. http://ana-white.com/woodworking-projects/sweet-pea-bunk-bed. The beds we just basically took the legs off the beds we had and added braces in the corners.
Loved how easy, Inexpensive and fast this method of customized drawer organizers was to make.
