Old-Fashioned Farm Table Downloadable Plan

Large, sturdy tables like these are found in many American farmhouses, from the New England coastline to the expansive plains of the great Midwest. This handsome version features a spacious 36 in. by 72 in. top - big enough to allow eight hungry people to sit pretty comfortably. A good size drawer on each end provides extra storage space for a variety of tableware. The extra long drawer sides allow each drawer to be pulled out far enough to expose the entire contents, yet an easy-to-make retainer system keeps them from pulling out too far.
