You can absolutely make it longer and taller! Just cut the boards longer for the shelves and top, and make the legs taller as well. You might want to add a third leg in the middle, just to support the weight a little better. I'm thinking of making a console table version for myself!

Aw, thanks Carol! I like my version better too! 🙂

I used the forstner bit instead of a countersink bit because it sinks the head of the screw further into the wood. If you need to buy one or the other, I would recommend the countersink bit. Either one would work, and the countersink bit is more useful on other woodworking projects.

I used the flexible right angle adapter because I had loaned my favorite one to a friend. I really DON'T recommend the flexible one, because I was having trouble keeping the bit in the screw head and it would spring back randomly. The ones I linked to are the kind I would recommend (and you can see I got it back at the end when I attached the shelves!)

I'd love to see it when you're done building!

Aw, thanks! It really is a versatile piece of furniture!

Those sound like great ideas! This little table is perfect for so many locations around the house!
