Like others, after spending a little time looking around for a good LEGO table I came up with nothing really suitable for my 2.5 and 4.5 year old boys. So, with some design tips from my wife I embarked on a short DIY project. The goal is to build a good size table that can be enjoyed by 2 – 4 kids. The idea was to have drawers accessible by both sides.

Bought some timber from the concept drawings and had a quick play with the layout. I’ve redesigned with some subtle changes but the table should be a little more solid than before. The new design loses the 2-sided drawer look in favour for table top containers and a larger one where the drawers would have been. Everything else still pretty much the same. 2 x 3 container layout: 2 x 2 container layout:

Timber from Bunnings cut to length: Started to frame up the table top to attach the legs: First leg attached: All done: I’ve left some weights against the legs to straighten them up. The table is starting to take shape though. Next step is to putty the screw holes, sand and apply undercoat.
