I Built My First Coffee Table!!! (and I Still Have All My Fingers!)

I’ve got big news people!
No, not I’ve-cured-cancer or I’ve-figured-out-a-way-to-attain-world-peace news, but in Shanna Land … this is big news!
My hubby and I have our defined roles as far as working on projects. I do the pretty stuff, and he does the stuff that could possibly maim you for life. Over the past year, I have been creeping little bits at a time over to his side. Learning how to use a drill, a nail gun, etc.

The one place I hadn’t ventured over to was using saws. Now this is where one could really get hurt. I watch have watched Grey’s Anatomy for years and lots of bad things (like losing a finger) can happen when people use saws. And I like my fingers.
I have seen so many other bloggers out there build things from scratch, and I knew that they must feel so proud of themselves for accomplishing something like that. So I decided to go for it.
We have had this glass coffee table for years, and I hated it almost immediately when we got it in the door. Do you know how many times a day I would have to clean that sucker? Constantly. Plus, the corners stick out — right at shin level!
So I decided to build a new one.
