So for christmas the wife asked for a potting table for the porch. It's located there as I'm taking over the shed (when it gets built). It's going to have a high back so that there can be a shelf. I'm going to put a couple of drawers in the bottom. As it's supposed to be cheap functional 'working' furniture and it's going to be painted, I decided to make it out of pine.
I've done a few drawings but the general dimensions are as follows:
1.9m high (this is for the shelves at the back)
worktop 90cm high
90cms by 40cms
I've made a good start over the weekend (despite not really doing much on it yesterday) so it's all cut to size, all the tenons are cut and I've made a good start on the mortices. You'll have to click through to the pics as the img tags don't seem to like Dropbox. Here's some piccys:
All the wood ready to go:

All cut to size and roughly laid out where it'll all go:

Why I don't use power tools, hand tools do enough damage as it is:

Once the mortices are finished, i'll post shots of them.
So far the joints all seem to mostly match up, so fingers crossed it should all go together ok.
