Anyone have plans for a basic a-frame set up? Hoping to use 2x4s. Thanks!
Looking for advice as i’ve decided to make my own kitchen.
We're looking at DIY murphy bed hardware kits (https://www.easydiymurphybed.com/product/horizontal-queen-size-kit/)
However, neither of us have any experience in woodworking or an assembly like this. Could anyone help us estimate cost all in (minus mattress) w/ current lumber prices? Or at least how many man hours it might take a novice to complete a project like this? Ideally we'd want to sand/stain/finish the wood so it looks like a finished product. Thanks for your help!

Im looking to build a nightstand similar to this but need some plans to work from. Where can I find something similar?
TIA
Hey all. I'm looking for plans for a comprehensive, all-bases-covered, sharpening/grinding station that can accommodate the following:
i know that this would be pretty easy to design myself, but i'm just curious to see what solutions others may have come up with that I may be able to reference or implement into my own design.
thanks!
Trying to find examples or brainstorm an idea for a porch swing with a back that “swings” so that it can be used on either side (facing out OR facing in but not both at the same time.
Have any of y’all ever seen this? I’ve seen it on park benches where the back of the bench flips so that you can face the opposite way. Thoughts?
Thanks!
Looking for plans for a simple knock-down loft bed. Anything from as simple as just 4 posts holding it up to something with a bit of storage underneath. It's for a my kids so I am mostly concerned about it being sturdy enough. I have never done any knock-down furniture so I'm not sure how to make it safe.
Hi all. My other half would like something like this for our entrance hall. We only really have 33cm from wall to door frame so just wondering if there any sort of carcass design for this anywhere?
We arr looking to purchase a house soon and as a present I'm thinking of making my wife a nice heavy dining table. We have a mill and access to a variety of oak and pecan. I think a 3 1/2 inch top on some big legs would look great for a statement piece. What are some concerns you would have of such a thick and heavy table.
I'm sure this is a really stupid question...
I'm looking at building a cabinet for my router table using 3/4" plywood. I have in mind what it will look like, overall dimensions, etc. So I want the cabinet to be say, 30" wide, so I know in theory the horizontal piece would be 28 1/2" but in reality it will need to be slightly longer since the plywood isn't really the full thickness. But how do I account for this when making my cut list? I usually have to break my plywood down in the Menards parking lot to fit in my car to bring home so I won't really know the exact dimension of the plywood until I get there.
Hello all, beginning the process of designing an upstairs bath remodel and I would like to build the vanity cabinet. I am tired of the thousand+ pricetag of junk put together with staples, MDF, and inferior woods. I have some pictures of a vanity that I would like to model after but I am not that great at putting plans and measurements together, so I figured I would post here to see if anyone has some plans for something similar to what I like. I will attach some photos. We enjoy a timeless design, not really into the modern look or the retro look. The milling profiles don't have to necessarily match obviously, just looking for the general design and drawer/cabinet placement/sizing.
Any advice and suggestions when it comes to what woods and finishes to use with a damp location like a bathroom? All constructive comments appreciated. Thanks in advance and happy woodworking!
Hi all, just a simple question, I'm trying to build a TV stand for a TV and PS5 setup. It's suppose to go into my closet because of limited bedroom space, would 8 screws in total be able to support a 40 inch TV on the upper and a PS5 on the lower shelf?
The materials I plan on using are 18mm MDF for the shelfs and 60mm x 60mm whitewood stick timber for the legs, also I don't own any tools other than a battery powered drill and a few screwdrivers so the wood would be bought and cut in-store. Thanks!
I want to build an open wardrobe to fit in a space in my daughter’s room.
I need to make it pretty cheap, and I’d sort of like to do it simply, as long as it will be strong enough. My preferred joints are pocketholes; I don’t have a lot of tools, so I’ve never done wood joinery.
I mocked up two styles using pretty much the same construction methods. I do plan to put a backing piece on it to prevent racking; I just didn’t add it to this drawing because it was cluttery.
My questions:
• Can I make this with 2x3s? I like that they’re not as massive, and they’re usually cheaper. (though maybe harder to find ones that are straight?). (I did see some 2x4s for $4, though—maybe I should use those?)
• I made a rectangular base, and then set vertical boards on it; maybe I should make the sides be the first rectangle?
• I thought about practicing with my late FIL’s router to make lap joints for the cross pieces, since with a 2x3, there’s not a lot of wood for pocketholes. But that’s kind of a lot of work. I could also glue & nail a piece of wood under each horizontal to support it, as a cleat. Any thoughts?
*Does it matter where the crossbraces are? Some are positioned to hold the clothesbar or to support a shelf. But the others, I just put there to help strengthen the sides. Do I need them?
I have some variety in plywood for top, bottom, shelves. I used 3/4” for
I made a mini cyclone dust collector. It’s easy to make. I hope you like it.
I’m learning how to build things at the moment and I would love to hear your ideas for guitar-related projects, like amp cabinets or guitar stands.
Hey people with sawdust in every crevasse, I have an unlimited supply of Ashwood scraps and i need to turn them into good money with a small amount of work. I do have a full woodworking shop to my expense. I do not want to sell it as firewood or cutting boards. I would be very thankful for the input.
I'm young and trying to learn woodworking. I made this blueprint in Blender and PS cause I make video game assets for a living. I need any advice you can offer on the stability and design, mainly joint recommendations. The space between shelves is about 8". Lowest shelf might be a little larger for storage. The desktop is comprised of 4: 2x6s. The rest is 2x4 construction. I plan on having a dual desktop monitor viced onto a slider that runs across the back edge of the table. This will cause the table to be back-heavy. I can't help but feel like something is missing.
