Farmhouse Dining Table
We saw this table at a furniture store but did not want to pay the hefty price for it. We took a few pics and then looked for similar plans on this site and found some. I then purchased the lumber, yellow pine and timber for the legs. The top is three 2X12 and the ends and removable extensions are 2X6. The legs are 4X4 timber. The table is extremely heavy and I needed a second person to help with the cuts and putting it together. It took about 8 hours to completely assemble and another several hours of sanding and then finally about three hours to stain. It was well worth all the time I spent putting this together!

Finishing
Sand all surfaces, starting with a medium grit and finishing with fine. Wipe off the dust, fill any holes or gaps with wood filler, and sand smooth once dry. Apply primer if you're painting, then finish with your choice of paint or stain and seal with a durable clear topcoat. For outdoor projects, use exterior-rated primer, paint or stain, and sealer so the piece stands up to the weather.
