Building an Outdoor Side Table for my Chaise Lounge

This side table is great beginner woodworking project, and it can be completed in a weekend. With a sleek design and durable construction, this side table is a great accompaniment to the chaise lounge that I built last year. As with all outdoor furniture, choosing a durable and rot resistant type of wood is imperative. So, for this project I went with cypress because of its durability in lasting outdoors and of course to match the chaise.
