Woodsmith Cherry Bedside Table Plans

Description

This bedside table has four solid corner posts for legs that are connected to the rails with traditional mortise and tenon joints. The sides and back are solid wood panels made up of slats that are assembled with tongue-and-groove joints. But it’s the details that make this table — like a wide chamfer running the length of each leg, graceful tapers at the bottom end of each leg, and a gently curving front apron. Building the table provides a number of woodworking challenges that make for an extremely satisfying project.
