1 - 1x6x8’
1 - 2x2x8’
Safety Glasses
Wood Glue
Miter Saw
Drill
Kreg Jig
1 1/2” pocket hole screws
Paint or stain
Sander
Step 1: Cut your 1x6x8’ board as follows: 2 boards at 45 degree angles so they look like
trapezoids with the longest points at 19” and 2 straight cuts at 19”
Step 2: Cut your 2x2x8’ into 3 or 4 legs, 4 if you want it to be more stable: Cut them at 10
degrees off center so they are parallel on the ends and they should be 21 1/2” long
Step 3: Drill pocket 3/4” pocket holes with your Kreg Jig into the top pieces as pictured below:
After your pocket holes are drilled, grab your wood glue and start glueing the edges and screw
the top pieces together with your 1 1/2” pocket hole screws.
Step 4: Drill your pocket holes into the tops of the legs and attach with wood glue and 1 1/2”
pocket hole screws. You can see in the pictures I drilled the pocket holes into the longest side of
the legs. I only did 3 legs so I placed one in the middle and the other two so it is shaped like a
triangle.
Step 5: Fill your pocket holes if you would like to and start sanding
Now your structure is built and you can finish it any finish you would like! I chose to paint mine
white and aqua and it is the perfect little table for my reading nook.
