DIY Double X Console Table

DIY Double X Console Table

Hi, it’s Amy from Hertoolbelt back with another build plan: a double X console table.


The console table is inspired by this beautiful Birch Lane Console Table, I love the sleek design and X legs.

I changed a few things up from the original inspiration, the length, depth and I wanted the X legs a little more chunky.

One of the best features of this table is the versatility of the table length. I decided to build mine 5 1/2 feet long (66″). Cut the Top and Shelves according to your desired length.

Step 2


Drill pocket hole in one end of each of the base short leg pieces. Mark 17 3/8″ up on each side of the long base leg, see diagram. Use wood glue and 1 1/4″ screws to secure 2 short base legs to a long base leg. Repeat for 4 X’s.

Cut the 10 – 3/4″ x 11 3/8″ shelf support pieces. Drill pocket holes in each end of the shelf support pieces. Attach the shelf support pieces to a X with wood glue and 1 1/4″ pocket hole screws. See diagram for dimensions. Repeat for other X base.

Attach another X to the other side of the shelf support pieces. Use wood glue and 1 1/4″ pocket hole screws to secure the shelf support pieces to the X. (You may need the short pocket hole bit to install the screws.)

Step 5


Fill the pocket holes with filler and allow to dry. Sand the console table until it is smooth, finishing with 120-150 grit sandpaper. I first primed the X legs, then painted them white. I applied pre-stain conditioner to the top and shelves, then stained them with Rustoleum Carrington. You’ll want to protect the stained wood with a top coat, like polyurethane.


Once all of the finish dried, I slid the top and shelves into place and that’s it! Done!
