Tack Locker
We did some conversions to the smokehouse plans to make a locker for all of my horse tack! :)

We needed shelving in our backyard shed. It’s really small so getting the plywood shelving in was a challenge, but I put the ol’ baron in and figured it out. Turned out pretty nice!!

My niece is here for the summer! We needed a guest bed fast, that didn't take up an entire room! She chose this day bed!
Her bed is in the computer room, so there isn't enough room for a twin size bed. I modified the plans to fit a standard crib mattress. Now, when she isn't using the day bed, it doubles as a lounging spot to read. It is soooo cute!
For the storage baskets, I cut shipping boxes to size and mod podged fabric to them, and added some cute little knobs.

I'm wanting to do this exact same thing with a crib mattress. Could you provide the adjusted measurements you used?
More info on these Triple Bunk Bed Plans on my blog: http://myhomedonemyway.blogspot.com/2013/03/triple-bunk-bed-finished.ht…)
1. Build the Bed Frames: (I will explain the process for one bed...do it three times if you want three beds)
2. Add Side Supports: ( Also do this step three times for three beds. We did it later but would be easier to do now)
3. Add Roll Guard: (do twice...once for each top bunk. We did this later but can be done now)
4. Build Ladder:
5. Paint desired color (you don't have to paint the sides that will be screwed into the wall).
6. Install into the wall in desired bedroom
7. Add Supports (do three times for three beds)
8. Add Plywood (do three times for three beds) 9. Finish

I hope you all enjoy these triple bunk bed plans. The instructions should be easy to follow to make your own!

Thank you so much for sharing your plans! This is great, well built, but still easy to do!
Decided to use mortise and tenon on the chairs to make for a clean look since I was staining and not painting. I did use a lot of pocket holes on the table.
We needed a small shed to hold shovels and rakes along with a few other garden implements. This cedar shed has worked out perfectly. We made a few tiny modifications including a small shelf and plywood floor. Thanks for the excellent plans, as always.
Great outdoor builds!

Built my daughter the day bed, and my son needed his own bed. But with a 2 bedroom house they have to share a room for now. So I seen the loft bed and well this is what I came up with. I stained it cherry, and routed the edges to give it a little touch.

This looks great! I like the way you kept it simple yet more rustic type appeal without adding the top board (laying flat).

Thank you so much for these awesome plans. When I saw the original twin panel bed, I knew this was exactly what I wanted to build for my two daughters. I love super high head boards, and these are exactly that. I am in love. I did make some changes to the plan. I went with taller side rails, and used metal bed rail brackets. The brackets were super important. We move every few years being in the military, and I wanted something that would with-stand time and moves. I am also quite impressed how solid these beds are. I could never find anything this amazing in a store. I would also like to thank my husband for his help. It was our first build, but definitely not our last. Thank you!

Thank you for your very nice comments:
Here is some info, let me know if I can help further more.
This is what we used for the base molding and the headboard molding at the top. http://www.homedepot.com/p/House-of-Fara-5-8-in-x-4-in-x-8-ft-MDF-Base-…
For the the inner molding we used two pieces of molding: This is the style (link below) we used, but ours was a little bigger, 5 1/4 inches. Couldn't find it on the home depot website, but this is exactly the same style.
The addition molding below is a finishing molding that we had to use since the above molding was not flush to the back board. It finished really nice. Glad we added this addition dimension. You can easily skip using it with different "above" molding.

For the side rails we also used 10 inch boards. I thought it made the bed look more proportioned. I will add additional pics of the molding, so re-check pictures. Again, let me know if you have further questions.

Thank you! You are the one made it possible. We truly feel inspired when we look at your page. Thank you for sharing all your plans. You are the best.
This was a super fun project and didn't cost much at all.
Started with Ana's basic plan/dimensions. Changed the back legs to 1x6, added aa 2nd shelf and storage closet to hang hand tools/gloves.
I used your plans to create this pair of grandchild Christmas gifts. They were a huge hit!
I modified the plan slightly to make it longer and higher to fill the space I wanted it to fill.
I primed and painted all of the boards before I cut them. Then I just had to do some touch up when I was done. This is my first woodworking project and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. I already have my next Ana White project picked out.
Went shopping Saturday, worked a few hours, then worked most of the day Sunday. Our boy is in heaven and everyone else wants one now.
My wife wanted a table to seat 12 and she liked the looks of the 4x4 Truss Beam Table from Ana White.
So we modified the plans, our table is 54 inches wide (not 37) and 98 inches long (instead of 87). The legs are 4x6 not 4x4. The lower center beam is 4x6. The plans call for 2x4 aprons ending at the legs, we used 4x4 aprons and extended them beyond the legs to within 3 inches of the end of the table. Finally, we laid the tabletop across the table with a combination of 2x8, 2x10, and 2x12 boards.
We built this all with cedar. The cost is a little over $1,100 for materials.

I built this outdoor patio table in about a weeks time working on and off. There are mistakes, it's uneven in places and it is not perfect! That being said, the plans for this are very forgiving and nobody would ever know without looking for these things.
You can get the breakdown on the build, the finish I used, chair solutions and other suggestions here:

This beautiful table only cost around $60 total to build!
I DO NOT have a Kreg Jig. If you don't have a Kreg Jig, I recommend purchasing small mending plates. I got mine at Walmart, they were $1.77 a 4 pack. I do not recommend using 3 inch nail screws and trying to get them in super straight. While it worked for 3 face frames, the last frame I just could not get to work (maybe I was getting tired). Speaking of tired, I mostly build in the middle of the night while my family is sleeping. If you look closely, I put the 1x2 26 1/2 inch pieces on the front and back frame. Wah wah.... I had to add an extra 1x2 across the top and re-size the 3/4 inch plywood on the bottom.
I'm pretty sure everything went wrong for me with this build but I wasn't going to let a nightstand beat me!
In case you are wondering, the cabinet pull is from Anthropologie. I haven't decided whether or not it's too fabulous for this piece.
I created a different top out various size select pine boards joined by biscuits and glue and then added utensil hooks on both ends and a bottle opener
I love the way these planters look and knew I wanted to make them. My freehand circular skills aren't great, so I attached the pickets together with a furring strip and used a template (second picture) to make the cuts. I used screws to attach the furring strips so that once the trim pieces are attached, the furring strips can be removed - or not. This method takes a little longer but it allowed me to make uniform parts. It's also easier to align the sides of the planters since the pickets are already attached to one another - i.e. one unit. I've made two, have a third, shorter one in progress and plan to make more!
