Notes About the Project:

Edge banding will be applied to the exposed edges of the plywood before assembly.

Step One

Cut the pieces for the legs, side frames, and side panels. With the pocket hole jig set for 3/4″ material, drill pocket holes in each end of the frame pieces as well as all four edges of the panels. Secure the frame pieces to the panels using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws. Secure the panel assembly to the legs using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws.

 

Step Two

Cut the pieces for the back frame and panel. Drill pocket holes in each end of the frame pieces as well as all four edges of the panel. Secure the frame pieces to the panel using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws. Secure the panel assembly to the legs using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws.

 

Step Three

Cut the pieces for the lower shelf. Drill pocket holes in each side edge as well as the back edge. Secure to the sides and back using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws.

 

Step Four

Cut the piece for the cubby shelf trim and drill pocket holes in each end. Cut the arc in the piece using a jigsaw. Position the piece as shown, then secure using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws.

Cut the piece for the cubby shelf and drill pocket holes in all four edges. Secure to the sides, back, and trim using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws. The top of the shelf will be flush with the top of the trim.

 

Step Five

Cut the piece for the divider and drill pocket holes in the bottom edge as well as the back edge. Position the piece as shown, then secure using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws.

 

Step Six

Cut the pieces for the stretchers and drill pocket holes in each end. Position the pieces as shown, then secure using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws.

 

Step Seven

Cut the pieces for the drawer shelves. Drill pocket holes in each side edge as well as the back edge. Secure to the sides and divider using glue and 1-1/4″ pocket hole screws.

 

Step Eight

Cut the piece for the top. The front and sides will overhang by 1/2″. Secure in place using glue and 1-1/4″ brad nails.

 

Step Nine

Cut the pieces for the drawer boxes. Assemble the drawer box as shown using glue and 1-1/4” brad nails.

Cut the trim pieces to length, then cut a 45 degree miter in each end. Secure to the front of the drawer boxes using glue and 1/2″ brad nails.

 

Step Ten

Cut the pieces for the doors. Cut the trim pieces to length, then cut a 45 degree miter in each end. Secure tot he front of the drawer boxes using glue and 1/2″ brad nails. Install the hinges on the door, then install the doors in the cabinet. Adjust if necessary, then install the cabinet pulls.

 

Finish as desired. Apply a coat of paste wax to the bottom of the drawers to help them slide smoothly on the shelves.

This table can finished in a number of ways – stencils on the doors and drawers, an aged and distressed look, etc. However you choose to do it, the Yvette console plans are easy and will have you creating a gorgeous piece of furniture very quickly!
