Classic Kitchen Island Downloadable Plan

Kitchen islands are just wonderful – just ask editor Rob Johnstone, owner of this handsome project. It has a counter-height work surface where you can also eat, featuring ample storage as well as being darn good to look at. This project is reminiscent of an old-fashioned butcher’s table, but it’s a lot easier to build because the top is a slick, built-up assembly rather than a heavy chunk of hard maple.
