Cherry End Tables

Project by Mike Jones posted 844 days ago 317 views 0 times favorited 7 comments Add to Favorites Watch

Daughter number one, child number two just graduated and moved to her first “real apartment”. I had built her some mdf end tables and when I told her I was going to build her some nicer ones she said she liked her old ones. I told her I considered those disposable but these would be signed, dated and for keeps. Needless to say she is one happy adult. By the way she is an elementary school teacher starting her first job next week. First paycheck in September !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My first big raise in October. Priceless.

You do realize that you are spoiling your daughter, right? ;^) Super looking end tables. Now, she just needs a coffee table to complete the set. LOL.

Very nice work, Mike.

I like the legs, but my wife said not to copy them because she doesn’t. No accounting for taste. LOL
