X Frame Side Table

January 31, 2017 By: admincomment

Looking through several DIY Blogs I found one true inspiring page.  The Rogue Engineer

And his plans for a side table.  http://rogueengineer.com/diy-lybrook-side-table-plans

 

Following the well laid out plans and cut instructions I prepared my wood and ready for assembly.

The only problem I had was cutting a  50 degree cut for the X on the table. SO I improvised and could only do a 45 degree cut.

The other modification I made was the top.   I used some reclaimed fence boards that I had.

Before I assembled I sanded and stained each piece of wood a dark walnut.

Once the base was assembled I was able to choose the fence boards I wanted for the top, and once again sanded and stained the boards.

Once I attached the top, the boards were uneven so I turned the table upside down and use my small circular saw to cut the boards the same length.

* Next time I make one i’m going to take pictures of how I cut the sides.
