We wanted a little table for our main entryway, and I really wanted to do a project with 4x4s.
I bought 1: 8' long 4x4, and 1: 2x8x8.
Cut them to size:
Used some wood screws and metal brackets, and threw this together:
Beat up the corners and edges a bit with a hammer:
Added a beefy foot with a bunch of metal and visible screw heads for a potentially industrial-ish look. We plan on painting them a contrasting color as the legs/feet:
For the last touch, added a slab of old barn wood leftover from our previous room reno project (barn wood beam coverup):
Now we have to paint, sand, stain & oil!
Stay tuned, this one is going to turn out great...
