Let’s take off with an X-brace dining table.

Here are supplies you need:

Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig, general tools level, a miter saw, a nail gun, a sander, general tools square, a table saw, a tape measure, general hardware, boards, coarse Kreg jig screws, wood screws, clamps, countersink drill, leg bases, leg supports, supports, tabletop boards.
Make two legs using wood glue and screws. Apply the X supports to the main structure. Next, join the center to the main leg. Glue the feet to the bottom of the leg base and nail them.
Break up the boards to 8″ wide, assemble the tabletop and attach it to the base.
Install the flanges and metal pipe inside the legs. Fill holes with wood filler and paint them. Voila!

9. Rustic Kitchen Island with Casters and Storage Space | Shanty 2 Chic

You can roll it anywhere, anytime. Sounds good? YES!

Instructions:

First and foremost, get a detailed and meticulous plan. On the whole, prepare panels and plywood (cut them based on your necessities), caster wheels, a handle, screws, middles, legs and drawers. Let’s start!
After building the X and leg frames, fit the Xs in place and connect them. Join the two-leg sets together. Place boards inside of the side legs (creating a storage area) and add cleats for the drawers.
For the top, attach a trim onto it then build the drawer. Add cleats to sides of the drawer precisely. Mount the drawer in the island and adjust it.
Put the drawer face (sides and top) together, then attach bottom drawer trim.
Screw premade top to the island and install caster wheels to the base.
Fill all holes with wood filler, repeat after they’re dry.
Sand it and remove the entire residue.
Finally, wipe it with a damp cloth.

8. Wall-Mounted Kitchen Shelves from Reclaimed Wood | Keepingitcozy

Let’s fashion a modest shelving unit only with three doings: cut, hang and sand.
Pick the wood (the older, the sounder). Cut and sand it all over until it is as smooth as you can get. Apply a coat of butcher block oil, wait until it’s dry. Give it another light sanding and bring all the pieces inside. Clean it.
Now, hang it and apply an additional light coat.
Old, hardwood doesn’t need stain, just soak it in a little oil and it puts its matchless asset on view.

7. Cabinet with Wine Storage | DIYhuntress

It doesn’t act as a home for equipment merely, but it also provides ingenious wine storage.
Whether in the kitchen or dining room, both are stunning.
For the bulk, you may opt for the Purebond Challenge and Purebond Plywood. Going for decorative metal grates gives your panel a fun, rustic look and practicality.

Tools:

Bronze rubbed knobs, butt hinges and magnetic catches.
Use spacers for the height of the unit and to center all of the panels. Then, hide edges with iron-on banding. Apply the iron to the raw plywood edges and trim them with a razor. Sand the edges to blend them. Lastly, stain it. Mission accomplished!

Belt straps deliver rustic style at its best. Utterly easy, cheapo, plus, they have more character than most existing shelves.
Prepare boards, paint, painter’s tape, four belts straps, drywall anchors, a drill and a screwdriver.
