This is the simplest way to assemble this kind of build that I've seen from the many videos that show furniture with this sort of alternating cuts of 2x4s. Thank you for the vid. I'm glad I continued to search and came across yours after seeing many of the others.
I love this idea! Modify the dimensions, and it would make a beautiful garden or entryway bench. Simple design and the possibilities the endless! Great job! Thanks guys! Take care!
You guys are awesome. In the middle of building that TV stand. Waiting for the stain to dry. Next I’m going to build that side table that Liz built to match the TV stand. Finally I will build this table. I like this table a lot. Pretty easy except the screwing it looks like....never would’ve thought screwing would suck so much. Edit: Built it today. Waiting for the stain to dry. Cost more like 65 bucks. It weighs a freaking ton. And it’s a little wobbly so I’m going to cut two 15” 2x4’s and attach them on each leg as a foot cap. It raises it by 2 inches but I think it’s actually the perfect height with the extra 2 inches. You’ll need two boxes of 2 1/2 trim head screws.
I am a novice woodworker and I love all your DIYs. I love how you give the wood measurements, the list of items needed, everything. My son and I made a farm bench under your instructions and it was great. Our second project was under someone else’s instruction and we had a difficult time, even though it was a beginner project. We will be purchasing your book. I love my new hobby...Thanks to you guys. I will be making this!
The Rehab Life Is there any specific kind of wood you would recommend? And if I want the colour to be more of a paint instead of a stain, are there any special instructions I need to follow to apply the paint so it’s even and coated well?
Hey!!!! Rehab Life is back!!! Miss these videos and music! Gave me the chills once I heard this song again! New project I need to make this weekend! Thank you guys for your DIY videos.
This is absolutely awesome... not just because of what it is... but because of what it can be applied to and how easily it can be modified. Anyone can make this any length or width for exactly the space they need. And oh, by the way... make it short enough to be a bench and then attach some back to it? Bingo. Amazing idea for newbies and practical woodworkers alike.
I like this. I think I’m going to do this. Nice job. 👍 Your dog threw a great toss. That’s a lot of trim screws. 162, I believe (18 per layer x 9). Time to buy that 2nd battery I want.
I'm so excited to have found your channel.. We have been moving houses a lot and you know what that does to the furniture 😭 but now the one we moving into is my retreat my sanctuary and Im happy to be taking your plans with me the only thing I'm buying are sofas but the rest we making 😀 thnk u so much from South Africa..oh Im in love with your channel simply beautiful...
I just made this over the weekend but instead of a console table, I changed the dimensions and made it 2 inches taller and 10 inches shorter so that it's now a makeup vanity. For the stain, I chose Cognac. Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for the idea:)
I like the clever no-glue build using the trim head screws, but I think I'd add glue on all the long grain flat faces for added shear (side-to-side) stability. This also looks like a good design to adapt for making a bench, by making the legs shorter. Though I'd definitely design in a double thickness stinger running under the seat to add lateral stability. Great design for a weekend project guys.
That's a really cool little table. Great idea. I would love to build it but I don't have the $500 needed to buy the lumber needed. Lol. You got some really straight 2x4s. They didn't looks twisted, cupped, or anything. Loved how detailed the video is.
I did this 2 years ago but ran the 2x4s through the table saw first to take off the edges. Alao put in a shelf for the DVD player and other components. After that I built a 3 side rolling shelf to put stuff on under the entertainment center. Turned out really good. Solid as a rock and just as heavy...lol
@@username-mark Thanks for the quick reply. I wanted to use this console for a TV stand also. I was going back and forth deciding between inserting a board or attaching 2x4’s for the shelf. I think I will do like you and keep the 2x4’s going!
Man I love this channel. We have made the kitchen table and the nightstand. They are some of our favorite things in our home. The kitchen table has honestly changed our life. We have an awesome table that sits the whole family and it is amazing. You guys are the best.
Just did this project. Simple, easy, & looks great! Real sturdy. We are using as a charging station for household devices! Your plans are awesome! Looking to do more. Big fan! 💯👍🏼
I built the $40 farmhouse table you all did a couple years ago. Thank you so much, it came out great for my first built and doing it all alone (it wasn’t easy at all though)
You helped me out tremendously fr! I want to make a 60×30×15 console table. The actual one I wanted is between $1,000 & up and I mean UP. No! I came across your video and I was like ok husband get ready lol. We are making this! If possible, could you please give me the exact measurements of 2×4s I need for the top and sides to achieve my project???? Plzzzzz!!!! Thanks in advance and may God continue to bless you and your family and those gifted hands.
I love this for my first woodworking project. Has anyone done the measurements to add in a shelf? I assume everything is the same except that I’d have to slot in 1 1/2” on maybe 8 of the courses.
I made this! I love it. It took a while to get the measurements correct because mine was twice as long and almost double the height. It came out great though. Thank you!!!
@@user-imani370 the size is like 8 feet long, whatever length the 2×4's come in. And the height was 36 inches I believe. I wanted it counter height like a kitchen cabinet. I used mine as a coffee bar and it was where I put the ice machine. It's SUPER HEAVY, solid, so keep that in mind. I had like 5 pages of notes, front and back, trying to figure out the measurements. It seemed like it would be simple but it challenged me 😥. You definitely want to get that right before cutting boards.
You'll probably need help, a second set of hands. I did. I wasn't really strong enough to drill the screws into the wood. My boyfriend had to do it. I didn't want him to work on it because he was an on-again, off-again bf. This piece will be in your family for generations I'm sure.
wonder how this would look with 4x4's instead of 2x4's. And, if you ran the boards through the planer you could get off the rounded edges making it look like a solid slab. Of course you would need longer heavier screws (and a planer). i really like the design. thats the great thing about wood working you can see something awesome like this and put your own spin on it. :) Great Job!
I loved the video and would definitely want the try it.. is they a way to get the exact measurements if I have to make this, exaclty 5 ft long and 3 ft high
Thanks for the video. Something is not adding up for me for the 39" board used in 2nd row. Shouldn't this be 38", as we have 4'' on two sides used by the 46" board in the 1st row? (46 - 4 - 4 = 38)
Hii I'm wondering, can I do this with 2x8s and make it 96 inches long? Will it structurally hold up? Also, sorry my brain isnt computing, what is providing the structural support for this? is it the short one holding up the top, then the long one behind it reinforcing it? I would appreciate it if you could reply, thank you!!
I made it! I added a shelf with pocket holes and stained it dark gray. The gel stain I used was a little thicker than I expected. Thank you so much for this clear video!!!
I think I missed something lol how are the screws not hitting eachother? It looked like they were all being screwed down in the same spots in the legs atleast
If you rewatch you will see that in one row he puts the screws closer to the edge. Then, the subsequent row he offsets them from previous layer by placing the screws inward about an inch or inch and a half, it looks like. He alternates screw placement back and forth this way with each row.

Really like the darker ends, adds so much to the table and an easy build. Thanks
Every time my husband hears this music...he knows he’ll be helping me with another project! 😂
Haha! Love it!
This is awesome! If i wanted the table 40 inches high. What what be the measurements/how many 2x4s would I need? I wanna do this project!
*would

I love how you accidentally got a nice arrow pattern in the wood. I'm doing this! Thanks for such a great video!
You two always do a great job, make it clear to understand and affordable 👍. Henry and Blanca are a bonus

I love how easy and inexpensive these projects are, and they are so beautiful. I’m making this for sure! Thank you! 😊
Thanks for this video!!! I made this table in 40 minutes. And I love it. Keep posting more videos. You guys are money savers.😃
I’ve made benches similarly. I love this plan. You can be sure I will build this. Thanks for the tutorial.

So amazed what can be made with basic 2x4s. Gorgeous!

Loved this! I ended up making this with 2x3’s instead of 2x4’s. I will eventually make a 2nd one at some point. Thanks again for sharing!
Side note: my table STILL ended up weighing a ton! That said, I still think I want to add a shelf to it!
I see you two are handling yourselves well during the pandemic. Been doing some of your projects while i am locked down.
Exactly what I needed and was looking for. Such a beautiful end result!
I miss these videos, another great and simple build.
Great video and really easy to follow, made a slightly slimmer version of this and using it as a decorative fire surround. Brilliant channel.

You guys are the best I built two barn doors with your instructions I thank you for sharing your plans are the the best!!!!!!
Awesome, thanks so much for watching!
I did those same thing a few years ago, just made it lower and wider with a component rack below and it’s my tv stand.
Absolutely beautiful
We just made this today and LOVE it. Thank you!
Great work guys. No other channel I have seen has videos this effortless

Hey there... when you added your shelf to this project, did you use 2x4's or a wood board? Any pics?
@mzzcookiecook I used 2x4 for the shelf attached to the sides. I also built a rolling 3 sided platform on the floor underneath out of 1x16x68 pine.

So beautiful and so easy can believed I love because you give measures thank you

So stupid simple but, so freakin cool too!! Hoping all is well guys, Dirty Jersey out!!
Easy and beautiful wood work.. thank you for the video
I built the $40 farmhouse table you all did a couple years ago. Thank you so much, it came out great for my first built and doing it all alone (it wasn’t easy at all though)
I’m planning to try this out but go with singular slabs rather than the multiple ones they had here! Is drilling hard? Never used a drill before LOL
Awesome! Love hearing that!
I love it! I will have to make one....or a few.
No I want to put all fingers in and get one made hahaa lol. Thanks for sharing .. have a blessed week
Love this!!! I can’t wait to give this project a try!
glad you guys are back!!!
I really love this just want to make it a few inches taller. How do I adjust to make it taller?!
We made this today! Thank you.
Would love to do this as a coffee table
Love your guy's channel keep it up 👍
You helped me out tremendously fr! I want to make a 60×30×15 console table. The actual one I wanted is between $1,000 & up and I mean UP. No!

LOVE LOVE LOVE! If I wanted to make this table in a different size, is there an easy way to figure out the math for the size boards I’ll need?
Great idea will be making it ❤️
So glad you guys are back. Loved the book
awesome! Thank you!
Where can I purchase the book in the UK? Seeing this has made me want to start a new hobby. 😊👌
I can't seem to put screws directly into the boards it's is not going in. Did you predrill ?? Or am I doing something wrong
Hello! Love this video, do you know what the dimension would be for an entry and coffee table?
I love this project!❤️❤️❤️
Very nice!
I think I’m going to change the dimensions to make a desk. Where would you guys put in support, if any? I think it’ll be around 60 in length.
Super I LIKE. From Europe Slovakia heart of Europe.
Can u extend the length without compromising the middle sagging?
What kind of wood did you use?
Классная идея, молодцы.
Thanks for the video. Something is not adding up for me for the 39" board used in 2nd row. Shouldn't this be 38", as we have 4'' on two sides used by the 46" board in the 1st row? (46 - 4 - 4 = 38)
wondering the same
2x4 is the nominal size. Their actual size is 1.5x3.5
love the book can't wait to make something!
Thank you!
What's the name of the book and where can I buy it? New subscriber here!!
Silly rabbit! I see the link in the description. 🤣🤣
Awesome 👏🏻

¡Very cool, I love it guys! I must do it.😃. Lovely new doggy (I do love the other also) 😍. Regards from Spain.
If I made this but longer, say 60 inches, would I need a support in the middle?
I’m wondering if I could use gorilla glue to make this instead of screws do you think it would work?
Hi!!! Could you tell me what measurements I would need to build this to be 52 length x 30 height? Thanks!
I'm glad you asked about the height because I would like this as a TV stand. Add a couple of storage areas with doors and some shelving in the middle.
I think it gonna be 10 pieces of 26" 1/2
Ten pieces of 30"
Five pieces of 52"
Five piecesof 45
Lol the ball tho! So funny great video!!
What type of wood did you use for this project?
Would it be possible to add a shelf ? To kind of make it like a TV stand ?
