Built 4 foot kitchen island. Used mix of cedar (2x6 decking)for top and rest was Douglas fir wood from home depot. Legs were 2x6 nailed to 2x4 Doug fir wood. 1x4 pine was used for the shelves. Measured distance to hold wine bottles. Cost approximately $100.00 in wood. Miniwax ebony and jacobean was used for stain. About 50/50 mix. Epifanes wood gloss was used to varnish. It's a superior product to use, however can be pricey. Can use a poly if concerned about costs. 

I have been wanting a longer entryway table and this one was the perfect length and style I was after! Thank you for providing these plans! You rock!

A nice summer project that is good for relaxing and eating outside.

Built with
7 - 2x4x72"
1 - 2x6x8
galvanized hardware

Started with a light base paint and taped off diagonal sections.

Next time we would lessen the gap inbetween 2x4's.

Wife and I needed a console for our TV components really bad. Saw this x-console and said we had to have one! Super quick and easy to build and looks amazing.

Built this for my wife. Had to modify the dimensions. She wanted it to be 36" tall and 80" long.

With Christmas fast approaching I am busy finishing making my holiday gifts. As a personal touch for some of the purchased items I decided to make little crates to hold the gifts. I used 1/4" poplar craft boards and made them in about half an hour. My dimensions are to fit these spices that I bought for gifts in the Caribbean when I was visiting my sister last month, but the design is so simple that you can easily modify it to fit whatever gift you are giving.

love love this project !!!

Overall, this was a simple build, easy for anyone familiar with woodworking. I built this for my sister-in-law and her boyfriend. It started as the standard king size headboard plan, however she really liked the look of my basement ceiling and requested if I could add something similar to the design. The rustic horizontal planks and herringbone pattern were added to the front and back allowing her to flip the head board to suit her interior design style without needed to buy a new headboard. The added texture of the rough cut tongue and groove pine was just what she was looking for. The original build only took a few hours. The herringbone pattern took the longest. Let me know what you think of my twist on this already beautiful project!

Very easy and fun first dollhouse project. Opted not to go with traditional "barn" colors and made it a mod Barbie house. My 5 year old niece loves it. Thanks Ana!

Thanks for the easy to follow plans for this corner cupboard.  I enjoyed making this as much as I enjoyed making your adirondack chairs.  Your drawings couldn't have been any better.  Very easy to follow.  Keep on posting more plans!!

I made the first of these directly from the plans on this site. I adjusted the second version a bit to ease the angle of the seat (a bit tough to get out of the original one for us old folks). I did this by changing the first cut on the stretcher bar from the suggested 20 degrees to 15 degrees. Hope the picture show the different angle of the seat. Three coats of Sealer/Stain and four costs of Spar varnish should allow them to make it through a Minnesota winter. - Rusty Rover

Used cedar wood so I applied a few costs of oil based polyurethane to compensate for the softness of the wood.
