Chicken Router Table
Router table with Paduok, maple and Walnut beauty. Featuring a Bench Dog Pro-lift router lift, I'm going to have a lot of fun making more beautiful things with this one! Loving how this turned out.

I loved this project!!! And am so happy with how it turned out!! I have 4 kids and this has so much space for everyone!
We paired the double trustle table with the farm table benches ( which I adjusted the length and height of the legs to make it kids size.)
The table top instead of a solid top we used 2 1x12 boards. And for the beaches we used 1x10 board for the seat.
Thank you for the amazing plans!
Want to make a king size version but didn't want to waste material.
I made this bed for our cat to see if I could do it.
Since I made it a million kids have played with it, stood on it, ext...I'll post a picture when I make the king size.
Thanks ana

That's so cute! I love it.
My kitties are sure I made our king farmhouse bed just for them :)
We recently purchased the L shaped couch pictured with the table but we didn't have a coffee table to match it. I had been wanting to build the Rustic x coffee table for some time and I finally had the perfect spot for it! To make the table a little more unique I added a herringbone pattern to the top.
Built this to use as a coffee/smoothie station in our kitchen area. We had some extra space and this was the perfect use for it!
My first attempt at making doors.... turned out pretty well. I might add some magnets just to assist keeping the doors from freely swinging.
This was a simple yet very time consuming building. Lots of pieces and lots of sanding. I am really pleased with how it turned out. I stained the edges of all the 1 x 4's prior to assembly just to make things easier. I also increased the sides of the chair from 24" to 26" and set the seat height to 18" to match the bench.
This is so much nicer than cutting boards on the floor! I altered the plans by adding extra supports out of 1x3s and adding a shelf to add storage and make it sturdier. Since I added the shelf and assembled the box with my Kreg jig, I skipped the boards along the top and bottom. This project cost me at least $100, between the sheet of plywood, a little extra lumber for the shelf, and all the hardware (the casters and folding hinges were maybe $60, including shipping for the hinges), but it's worth it for the ease of using the saw and the tool organization.
My very first build!! Thanks for the easy plans.
I may have spoiled my Grand-daughter a bit too much and her room was really full of stuff. I decided that I should just go ahead and spoil her a little more by building her a new bed for her birthday. I used the Camp Loft Bed plan but did modify it to fit her full size mattress and raised the height just a bit to make sure that her doll house would fit underneath. I am so happy with how it turned out! I love that I can fit her toy bins underneath the stairs where they are out of the way and how much more room she has to actually play. I used some really fat yarn and crocheted the little stair runners so it is nice and soft on her feet going up and down the stairs. This project did take longer then some of the others that I have done but I do also work a full time job. I had the bed actually built and put together in a weekend but then took it all apart for staining and finishing which took a long time. There were a lot of pieces to stain with multiple sides and coats to get the coverage I wanted so it would match her other furniture. I also did 3 coats of topcoat on each piece. Looking back if I had to do this over again I would have used 4x4's for the legs/bed posts. She is only 6 right now but as she gets older I will probably switch those so that it is a little more sturdy as she gets bigger.
I made the bulk of this bed from 2 sheets of OSB to make it cheaper. The headboard is from salvaged pallets and scrap studs from a construction site. Baskets or drawers forthcoming. Easy plans to follow.
Thank you for the great plans. It was an easy project thanks to the easy to follow directions. I am getting a lot of compliments on them.
Single door slider. Made the hardware from standard 1 1/4 flat metal and rollers from a couple pulleys. Top is rough cut white pine that had some great saw marks and knots for character. Back is ship lap from an old barn.
Lots of fun but, make sure the base frame is fully square. This is such a joy to look at in the kitchen and we're already looking forward to using the additional space come the holidays and the extra cooking and baking planned.
I loved this plan from the minute I saw the post. We got the kids and their friends involved in this build. I love having a outdoor table that is large enough to have everyone around.
Easy to build. Just used 1x4's and 1x3's.

Awesome looking project! And well done. Do you happen to have any plans for it? I'd like to have one at my house.

Wow, this is plain awesome. Do you have detailed plans on did you make one. Am planning to make a cabinet which fits this dart board - Winmau Blade 5? Will it fit inside it?
Beautiful table
This is my 2nd table built from plans on the site. I built the pocket hole farm table originally and our family used it for 2 years and then I sold it to another family to enjoy! I built this one a full foot longer and used a 2×10 in the center to widen it. We host large gatherings so I wanted the additional space. The dark walnut came out beautiful if darker than the plan table. We love it!

Thank you for sharing, it looks like a wonderful gathering place!
Just bought a vacation home and need to furnish the place. Started with the size Farmhouse bed with side tables. Used Behr paint from Home Depot called Cotton Whisper sanded edges and used a dark walnut stain to antique. Finished it off with 2 heavy coats of poly.

Did you use a metal bed frame or did you make the side rails and frame? i am curious how high my mattress will sit above the footboard because I want to make the side rails and use slats. I have a boxspring that I will be using. I dont want my mattress to tower over my footboard. did you adjust the length of the 4x4s on your footboard?
Modified the potting bench plan to make an outdoor bar.
Used your plans and modified with carriage bolts on the legs to attach the box to the frame. Thank you Ana, my son LOVES IT.
