Project Information

Thought I'd submit this project for your idea list.
I found the design in a projects book called "Outdoor Furniture", by Nick Engler, isbn 0-87857-788-2, 1988, Rodel press.
I've made three of them so far and they make great gifts and are very versatile. It's described as a plant stand holder for your deck, but I've used them for end tables and one is a towel holder in a bathroom. They move easily with that cool handle, I really like them.
Pretty straight forward design. The uprights are attached with half lap joint and screwed.The shelves are screwed with dowel covers. The top handle floats free.
Thought with Christmas coming up I'd put this versatile fairly easy project out there for any of you thinking on projects to do.
Thanks for looking, good luck…............

Very nice and well done project Jack. Looks way to good to be used outdoors.

Hey, thanks for posting this… what a great idea and simple to build… good results on this project which could also pass for a book shelf (if your books are in holders)...

Thanks!
You get to practice some good basic skills on this. By the way, cut the rabbits before you taper the uprights.
Stefang, so far you're right. None have been used outside yet.
Wisty, I have one by my bed, full of books, lol…..................
