Farmhouse Table

Submitted by AlInOhio on Fri, 01/11/2013 - 19:11

After searching retail stores for farmhouse tables and not liking the pricetags, my wife talked me into tackling this plan. (I'm glad she did) This is my finished product.

I made the breadboards extendable so we could add extra boards if we needed additional seats for guests.

Estimated Cost
$100
Estimated Time Investment
Weekend Project (10-20 Hours)
Finish Used
Minwax Polyshades American Chestnut Satin
2 coats Minwax Clear Satin Fast Drying Polyurethane
Legs are painted in a color called "Dark as Night"
Recommended Skill Level
Intermediate

I basically notched out the end apron so that 2x2's could slide through, then attached the 2x2's to the breadboard. I originally attached them so they were just under the edge of the breadboard, but have since changed it so that it goes about halfway. I hope you understand what I am trying to say, if not I can add some more pictures.

Every time we visit websites, we saw almost the same as the other article and topic but I am shocked when I first read the title from this page. I never think that the blogger has the knowledge of making something new online. I only saw this kind of blog in this page. I concur that the blogger has the intellect of Albert Einstein. منتديات
