First adding the cubbies, then the other leg, then the long shelves. These will be assembly with pocket holes on the underside of the shelves, so I assemble it upside down.
Once everything is painted I move to assembling the shelves that’ll be bases for the top. I’m going to pre-paint most of the shelf pieces because once they’re assembled they’ll be kind of cramped for painting purposes. And pro-tip, use a wide shot when you’re filling seams if you don’t want people to see your gaps.Īnd with that I’m ready to paint. After assembly I come back with some wood filler to fill any gaps to get the best appearance after paint. Then those assemblies get screwed to the table top. So on the long side, I cut them short to leave room where they’ll intersect. On the short side, they’re the same width as the table. The inside rails will just butt against each other.
Later, I’ll add some supports inside of the field with CA glue to make sure the plexiglass has enough support. May 12 Teannan 65.98 x 32.047 Craft Table by Red Barrel Studio® 459.

The rails along the table top are two pieces. I cut a piece of scrap the same thickness as the plexiglass that’ll be the top and used that as a guide for spacing. The sides of the cubby were screwed together, and then I assembled the table top - which is basically a big shadow box. Then we did a little pre-assembly before painting. Lots and lots of pocket holes, fortunately I had an eager little assistant to help me out. That’s the plywood part of the build, now to the pocket hole part. After that, I give it a quick hit with some 220 grit sandpaper. I like to use iron-on edge banding, and then just trim it down with a chisel. This is going to be painted, so I go ahead and edge band all the edges of the plywood that’ll be exposed to get the best appearance. I’ve found this gets me super tight miters. The frame around the table top is going to my mitered, so I reference the frame pieces against the table top to get my marks, and then sneak up on them with the saw.
