This was my biggest project to date. The hardest part was finishing it.
This was my biggest project to date. The hardest part was finishing it.
Made from the modified Ana White Rustic X-Console Table.
I made this console table to fit the length of my sons couch. It's about 6 foot long.
It was really easy to make. My only tip is to sand all your timber before assembling. Getting into the tight spots with a sander is quite difficult. I hae now made 4 of these tables and sanding first saves so much time and headaches. The other 3 I have made were painted white and had stained tops.

Plans
do you have the plans for this? i've been looking and looking for what i needed and this is it!!
American Girl dollhouse built using PureBond Plywood, Kreg K4, and Ryobi tools!
I love making thing for our son. i document most of it at http://madeatthisplace.blogspot.com.au/
Our son has a lot of Lego, especially fire engine Lego.
It was spread out everywhere and we needed to contain it.
This fire station playhouse was perfect.
I added a ramp so the cars and trucks could get up to the top level and garage doors on one side as our house is more like a garage then a fire station.
I used scrapbooking paper on the upper level walls and painted a H on the roof for the helicopter. (or in our case a plane).

Awesome job!!! I don't see much built for boys and this is just an awesome playset, I will defiantly be doing something like this for my grandson. I especial like that it's up off of the floor.
We had issues in Baby Goats' closet, which prompted a big closet re-do! Chose to use the plans for the Closet tower, and I LOVE it! You can read more about it here.
Followed the plans closely. Stained before assembly for the two color look.
I love my Sofa and coffee table!
This is my second build and I'm so pleased with how it turned out! I bought a Kreg Jig especially for this project, and I honestly don't know how I ever lived without it!
I'd been wanting a new console for our TV and this seemed perfect.

This looks awesome, I wasn't planning on building the console table to match my coffee table, but after seeing how yours turned out I might have to work on this next! I love the cool finish that you did!
Surprisingly simple. We used 4x4s for the diagonal supports because I prefered the look.
My husband and I built this on Sunday- I love how it turned out! The hardest part was finding cushions, and carrying it up a flight of stairs!

I am looking to build something very similar! I was wondering where you purchased your cushions they are beautiful!
A friend asked me to build them a hall tree for their entryway because they couldn’t find one big enough to suit the area in their home. Thankfully I found the plans here for Mimi’s hall tree bench and hutch. I had to modify them slightly to make it a little wider and taller. They were very happy with the finished project!
Thank you for providing woodworkers with these excellent plans for all skill levels!
I gave this one to my Dad to do. Of course he made some changes. But she loves her sand box and we love it too! Thought I would share some pictures of the construction after he brought the parts to our house. 400 pounds of sand later.
This was the first building project I completed by myself start to finish! I was able to use 2x4s we already had in the garage (sorry husband!) and some scrap wood for the few other pieces it required. The only thing I added to the plans was some trim for the front.
I built this last summer and since then the shelf on the very top has warped a bit. I would recommend adding extra support. It rains a lot here, and I think that contributed to it warping. Other than that, it has held up very well and the shelf can easily be fixed with some brackets.
Overall, this was a great first build for me! The plans were straightforward and easy to follow. And there's just nothing more rewarding than standing back at the end of a day of building and thinking, Hey I made that :)

Thank you!! I loved the red one in the plans and just had to have one of my own!
This is the table I made for my wife using 2x lumber...I used the epoxy resin finish and it gives it a beautiful look and finish...my wife, family and friends love it...I'm very pleased with how well it turned out...
I followed the plans for the 4x4 Truss Beam Table and it turned it out great! I definitely recommend the Kreg Jig HD for the 4x4's. I used non HD Kreg screws for the table top.
It's much easier to build it upside down to ensure you get all your pocket holes underneath. Also, use duct tape to keep the 45 degree angle posts clamped as it's much easier when screwing together.
As a bonus for the family I built it for, I cut their name out with my scroll saw and added as a personal touch for the piece.
I had to adjust the height and width of this project to fit on my wall in this corner. But I just LOVE how it came out. It's one of my favorite pieces of furniture in my whole house!
Entry board and batten treatment with hooks, cabinet with doors and drawers and bench. Made from plywood.

Thanks! We just sold our house in under 48 hours and I think all these built-ins helped! Thanks Ana for all the great plans and inspiring me. I learned so much coming from some one that had never built anything. You're awsome!
This was super easy. Just make sure you bolt it to the studs in the wall. I bolted them to each other and to the wall for added support. It only took me the afternoon and then I stayed up all night to finish it and get it done. I made this system over 3 years ago and it still works great for our family.
I made this window seat for my home office from your mudroom bench plan. Turned out fantastic. Loads of storage in these huge drawers. Loving it!!
