Before beginning to build, always check in on my site to make sure you have the most up to date set of plans, I occasionally update and change the plans to make the building process easier or to allow for less expensive purchasing of materials! Read through the entire set of instructions and all comments before beginning this project. If you print out or save plans, be sure to check in on my site to be sure you have the most up to date set of plans, as I occasionally update things for ease of building or buying. If you are new to building, read through the GETTING STARTED section and other articles found under the BUILD tab in the menu on my site, it has valuable information about how to get started, tools and techniques. If you are unfamiliar with the finishing process, visit my Finishing school for some tips and tricks for painting like a pro and for special finishing practices. Use glue to secure your joints and Consider Painting or Staining individual sections prior to assembling. This makes the paint application virtually flawless. Coat with a spray on Poly or Wipe on Poly to protect your finish and your piece and it will last for ages. Adhere to all safety standards and guidelines, and be sure you follow safety protocol throughout your build. If you are unsure about whether you are building safely, run a quick online search for the tool or technique you are using, or contact me via email or post to the forum before you move ahead. My contact info can be found in the menu of my site.
Edge banding will be applied to the exposed edges of the plywood before assembly.
Cut the pieces for the leg frames. Set the Kreg jig for ¾” material and drill holes in each end of the smaller pieces. Cut the angles in the 2×3 pieces as shown by marking the lines on the lumber and cutting on the line. Attach the legs to each other using countersunk 2-1/2” screws through each piece. Attach the stretcher as shown using glue and 2-1/2” pocket hole screws. The outside face of the stretcher will be flush with the outside faces of the legs.
Cut the pieces for the top supports. Center the pieces on the leg frames and secure using glue and countersunk 1-1/4” screws.
Cut the piece for the shelf. Secure to the stretchers on the leg frames using glue and countersunk 1-1/4” screws.
Cut the pieces for the top and the frame. Attach the frame pieces to the underside of the top using glue and countersunk 2” screws.
Position the top on the leg frames. Secure using glue and 1-1/4” countersunk screws through the underside of the top of the leg frames into the top.
Fill any Screw, Nail or Pocket Holes, Sand and Finish as Desired. For Finishing Tips and Tricks visit my Finishing School
