My wife asked me to make her a plant stand for her craft room.
After a lot of brainstorming and gathering ideas, we came up with this multi-level stand that has five levels. It's got lots of room for plants to spread out, and has an interesting airy look to it, as the different levels are perched on slender legs.
I made ours out of solid cherry, and it's mostly made of smaller pieces of wood. It only becomes large once you put it all together.
This was a fun challenging build. First there is the standard sorting and choosing and processing wood. Then there is making a panel that is bigger than my planer can handle. Then came making five identical perfect circles with a bandsaw jig, something I've never done before. Next was trying to figure out how to get all those skinny legs to line up and stand still while it is all fastened together. It was one of those projects that became both more difficult and more satisfying as it went along.
And finally, and I'm not lying... It was 95% complete before someone pointed out to me that it could also double as a cat tree.
