Project Information

About 5 years ago I moved in to the house I am currently living in. The previous owner left some random stuff in the garage which included about 25 pieces of pine that was all the same size(3/4"x1"x18"), some molding also 18" long and some squares of 1/4" ply. It was obviously left from some other project. I am always happy to take free wood! I was going to use it to make a couple of paneled boxes just to store tools in, but when I started laying out the sticks a table just started to form. I had to stain it really dark to cover up all of the crappy places on the wood….... anyway this is what I ended up with.

isn't it amazing how the wood almost tells you what it wants to become ? I have made so many projects from pieces of wood with no idea what the final piece should look like and had the most fun doing it that way : ) You have done a remarkable job with what you created here from scrap : )

If you hear a rustling in the hedges tonight it is just me raiding your scrap bin. Great project and beautiful wood.

That is as close as one can get to making a silk purse from a sows ear. The legs really set the piece off.
