All of us started simple and worked our way up. It can be come addicting.
The Kreg pocket system is very helpful in a lot of situations. For something like this I would have suggested using lap joints which would be even stronger.

Atta boy, Koog. You got started…the hardest part of any worthwhile adventure. And your result was a handsome work table any of us would be proud of. Congratulations, and thanks for posting.

That looks like the same bench I made with my Kreg system when I got it.

A very fine way to start out by building a bench so that you can build other things. All you need now is a vise. Nice job.
