Submitted by idotaz on Thu, 09/10/2020 - 17:06

It took me 4 days to build and finish. I went to the store the very same day I received an email with these plans in it! I love the results! I'm typing this post up on my laptop sitting at my new coffee table!! Work days will be a little more comfortable from here on out LOL! Thank you Ana for sharing your talents in designing amazing build plans.

I did the modifications and added the bottom shelf and the x braces. I did a half lap to join the x braces. I also added small casters so it is easy to roll the table out of my way to get up without having to always close the table top. The finish is dark walnut stain and latex paint in the color Tinsel.
