First measure, re-measure and again measure your wall or your area, make a very detailed plan. This is the way I did mine, not a pro, not a carpenter, don’t over think it. I just used two by fours, screws, white paint and time.
Off to get lumber, Husband checked my numbers so there are not a return trip. I didn’t purchase the top at this time. I wanted the base together and MAKE sure I had the right size cut. I wanted this table heavy and not able to move around when my sewing machine was going. I did the legs this way.
Cut all the pieces for the legs, painted
Put two end units together
With Husbands help added two by fours to the outside edges. After see the space under the table I added a shelf, which I love having.
Back to Lowes, for the table top. I like to do this talking with the gentlemen cutting the wood, which side will have the best edge after cutting? This guy was HARD to warm up, but I told him it was me building the table and I was asking out of no knowledge and it WORKED !
This is the top and Husband did the cuts for the new under shelf. I did 2 thin coats of stain and LOTS of satin top coats, sanding with a brown bag in between loads, this took days. DO NOT hurry drying.
MY NEW TABLE
The table and plaid wall supplies were just about 300 dollars, priceless !
