Slide Under End Table
This instructable will show you how to make a simple slide under end table. This table was made using 3/4" pine wood since that is what I had on hand. This was my first project utilizing the Kreg Jig Pocket Hole System which allowed me to recess and hide the access for the wood screws on the bottom of the table. I hope you enjoy this instructable and if you have any questions, feel free to reach out. Thank you!
Supplies
3/4" pine wood boards
Wood screws
Wood glue
Wood stain
Polyurethane
Saw
Electric drill
Electric sander or sand paper
Router (optional) - to add rounded edge to table top
Gather and Cut Your Wood
I utilized 3/4" pine to make my table.
Each board is _____ wide. I attached four boards together to fabricate the tabletop. Two boards were used for the legs. The footing of the table consists of three pieces. The underside of the tabletop has two pieces to attach to the legs. Four triangle pieces were cut to brace the legs to the tabletop and foot. I have included a schematic for the dimensions of the various pieces.
Add the Pocket Holes
Use the Kreg Jig Pocket Hole System to place pocket holes in the three pieces of wood that make up the table footing. Four pocket holes will be placed in the center piece and two pocket holes will be placed on each side piece. See the above images for a better reference.
Stain and Coat the Wood Pieces
I used Minwax wood stain and Minwax polyurethane to stain and coat the wood.
