Steve01S Posted November 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 thanks for the website and here are the pics. http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0822.jpg http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0823.jpg http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0825.jpg http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0826.jpg http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0828.jpg http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0829.jpg http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0830.jpg http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0832.jpg http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0833.jpg http://s648.photobucket.com/albums/uu210/s...nt=IMG_0819.jpg Yes this is a very easy project and takes almost no time and very little woodworking skill level to make it. Also done for about 40 bucks or less probably alot less if you have a truck and can haul longer pieces of wood and not a lil nissan 200sx 2 dr coupe. These plans can also be modified to make bigger tables such as 4'x8' or 2'x8' table or whatever size you wanna make it. Or it can also be modified with different tops like if you wanna use MDF or even granite or marble i guess if you wanted to. I just brought some bolts with hooks on them that I will be mounting to the inside of the legs so i can hang things like extension cords or whatever on them.

Steve01S Posted November 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 steve. in your album when you highlight your photos, there will be a little menu that comes up. Highlight the All the wood marked with my sharpie marker to length The wood is now cut to length Now for the legs take the 2x4x36 and 2x6x36 and screw them together in this L shape Now the table top frame using your 2x6x48,21 and 45 screw them together as seen in the pic This is the leg brace using the 2x4x18, and 39 screw them together as shown in pic Now mount the 4 legs 1 to each corner of the table frame and also notice i measured down 10 inches and put some temp. braces up for the leg brace to hold it in place. Now screw the leg brace into place. Now the table is right side up and we are almost done. Now just screw on a sheet of 2x4 plywood and waa la you are done.
