My neighbor decided that he wanted an end table a bit larger than the table I previously built for him. (See here) This time he wanted a table 18-inches tall and a 20" x 20" base. He also wanted the finish darker than before which was SYP stained with pecan stain....

An Interesting ‘Huge’ End Table Project for a Friend and Neighbor
My neighbor wanted me to build him an end table that was 12" x 12" x12" in size. Originally my plans were to build the table out of cherry but, decided to switch to southern yellow pine (SYP), since the project was so small. I figured that the grain in the SYP would...
A Few Precious Memories
In December of 2022, a young lady contacted me about a special project for her. She had a small piece of wood from a valance in her daddy's house. The house had been sold and was being remodeled but, she was able to obtain this small piece of wood. Her dad had built...

These are 2 sets of Adirondack chairs and tables that I built for my daughters Christmas 2016. They were made from 3/4" treated lumber and stained. Sets were built and allowed to air dry before staining.
End Table Plans
This is the end table I built to go next to my recliner. I was using a snack tray table and wanted something a bit better. Under the snack tray is an empty space that can be cut into for a secret compartment. It is accessible by removing one or more of the drawers....
Wendy’s Bath Vanity
I built this for my oldest daughter. She has a pedestal sink in her master bath and nowhere to store things. This was a present from her husband for Christmas 2021. She had told her husband that she wanted something "built by her daddy". She was totally dissatisfied...
