Santa made his way to our house this past Christmas and left my 3 yr old Mya her first train set. He also promised to deliver a train table as well. Well, as the months rolled by, no table. Seemed there was always some sort of delay. But, on August 1st, Santa finally came thru… Mya is now 4...

I guess its about time I posted a project. I don't see myself as a woodworker yet, but I aspire to be. So far, my projects have all been designed and built to fill a need, but hopefully the inspiration I get here will help push me to do more. I guess the size of my wallet plays a part in that...

It all started with, "could you make Jack a train table for Christmas?" After hours of looking at online designs and sketching out a few ideas, I came up with my final design. There was one request they had - it would be great if it could be used for a coffee table when friends come over...

My friend Mike wanted to build a train table for his daughter. My son had received one of the Thomas and Friends tables last Christmas so we used that as a basis to start from. It is made of Poplar with a removable MDF top and left unfinished at Mike's request. Mike took the lead on this one and...

We found a good deal on a train set for our kids but needed the obligatory table to go with it. Prices for a well-built one were ridiculous and the cheap ones were just that. Perfect project for some leftover Ash that I had in the shop. This would actually make a good general use play table...

This is my very first project ever. =) It's a train table for my son. I don't really have any tools or experience with real wood joinery, so it's pretty crude. Basically, I designed it in my head while standing in the lumber section of Home Depot. I know…I'm not the sharpest chisel in the...

"Santa" made this for my son last Christmas and just now getting it posted here. The white table top was built only for the train set. There is storage in the Ikea bins as well as under the split table top. The table tops are made to prop up as easels on each side. I still plan on gluing...

I'm not sure if this was my fourth project or not but it was still one of the first, done the same way, in the driveway with a borrowed skilsaw. I continued putting the pocket hole jig to use here. It's 3/4 cabinet grade ply with the legs bolted on. No finish other than sanding - if it ever...

Here's a table I built for my some for Thomas the Train, Legos, or whatever. It's all red oak, and went together pretty easily, rabbet joining the corner and cutting dados to join the table to the sides.

This is a train table I made a year ago… It's real simple and you can see that it did not cost a lot. It has taken a lot of abuse and has held up over the year of climbing on top of, toy hammering and drilling etc… The train set has since then grew and there is not alot more room for any more...

Train table is also sized to double as a platform for a twin size matress.

For those who haven't followed this table in process, here is the link to the blog series. This was a good project for me and my current skill level. With each project, I stick to certain things that are familiar and comfortable (dovetail joints, wedged tenons, chiseled curves), and I add one...
