As most families do these days, we eat in front of the TV and our dinner room table is the caught all for the items that we are too lazy to put away correctly. We had purchased a few of these couch tables a few years ago at a unfinished furniture store in Northern Kentucky. They worked great.
Before Christmas, I got the idea to make some items from tobacco sticks that have been planed and glued together. I have to give Ryan Corrigan at Woodcraft Lexington credit for giving me the idea.
After Christmas, my son, Daniel, found me a NEW planer for the low, low price of $100. That set in motion this couch table. I found the design on the Internet. I found tobacco sticks on Craigslist in Georgetown for $.10 each. Talk about a slow process. Planing two sides of a tobacco stick takes some time. The table is assembled by my trusty Kreg jig.
Here is the finished table. Bonnie claimed it right away.
