- Wood planks (I used salvaged wood)
- 3 narrow boards, 1/4? x 2.5?
- bed posts (I used old bed post for legs but the options for this part are endless!)
- tape measure
- pencil
- skill saw
- sander
- drill
- 1 1/2″ wood screws
- 4 hanger bolts
- Pick out your planks! (I used 3 reclaimed wood pieces about 1′ wide each).
- Determine your length and cut accordingly (We cut ours to 6′ long).
- Choose your legs (bed posts are GREAT if you can find them at a salvage shop).
- Cut to your chosen height (18″ worked for sitting on cushions on the ground).
- Sand all cut pieces to smooth and even.
- Put your planks face down and lay the three 1/4″x2.5′ boards perpendicular on the back, and drill a screw into each board to connect and stabilize, (similar to how I constructed my headboard).
- Measure and mark where you want to position your legs.
- Drill holes into the legs & table (about 1/2-3/4″ deep).
- Screw in the hangar bolts onto the legs, attach them to the table, flip over & dine!
