This end result is a nice little side table, but I must confess, it is not up to my standards. It will make a nice table along side the couch. I’m finishing in haste to get the subscription to PW, but I will continue my challenge and improve this table more at a later date. My son (age 3) loves to hang out in the woodshop, so he can help me. Bottom line, the baby girl goes to the doctor on time, I get my challenge finished, and my son gets to help me finish it next week!
Legs, sides and top are make of Alder with Cherry on the outside edges of the top. It sits 28” off the floor and the top is 10” x 12”.

Finished Product!

My son giving my daughter a smooch. Just thought I'd add that in.

Jon Congratulations for getting it finished.
I guess if we never find any way to improve our work, then we might not be critical enough of what we are doing.
Be proud and say I can do better next time. We learn from completing our project.
