I know the plans have the wood dimensions, but would be still nice to know what you started with from your wood stock.

Rex Krueger

I'm sorry, but I'm not great at calculating that. If you add up the top and the legs, that will get you pretty close. The aprons are very small.

I think doug fir is a great choice....but I might pick a more durable wood for the top. If you do use the fir, then pick a hard finish.

Walnut is perfect for this build!

Will Baumgardner

So how much total board feet do we need for this?

Matt Evans-Koch

Thank you Rex for today's video. This is going to be a fun little project. I've got some really nice Doug Fir I can use for this. Now to get cracking. Have a good 4th of July.

Ok I also have some figured maple. Not sure how much but I’ll make it work thanks

It's hard to recommend any design for outdoors. Wood and weather just don't mix. This table is pretty delicate. It's a fine end table, but I wouldn't subject it to anything rough. I think inside is best.

If I was still back in the states I would have used popular as well. I always liked the darker streaky pieces everyone seemed to avoid! I have some walnut planks coming in my pallet so thats what I will use!
