Reclaimed Oak Bar Table

So the next project on our list after getting the media center done, is a skinny bar table. It's going to sit behind our big, red couch down in the basement to offer more people viewing space of the TV for the big game.

Luckily, this was a super simple design. We're going to be using some of the wood that I got from my grandparents. If you remember, we ended up using cherry and walnut for the tops of the media center, but the oak we separated out for this table.

The table's dimensions are 20" deep, 72" wide, and 36" tall. Perfect for sitting behind the couch for some stadium-like seating.

We're going to be using Aspen for the base and legs, and then top it with the oak planks. You can get an idea of where the table will be in relation to the completed media center. The big red couch is 92" long which means that the 72" of table will fit very nicely centered along the back of it.

I can't wait to see this project come to life. I'm even more excited about getting the basement done. Oh, and I need some bar stools. I will definitely need 3 barstools. Time to hit up craigslist.

Have a great day all!
