LastOfTheVee8s Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 My dog loves to look out the window but has been destroying my sill so I decided to make him a bed that would raise him up and hopefully protect my window. I decided to build it with all pocket holes. I bought the Kreg mini pocket hole jig which worked pretty good. Used some black stain and then sanded it a bit for an antique look. The last picture doesn't do the " antique look" justice, but I will be going back and giving it a little more aggressive sanding to enhance the look. It's big but the dog loves it so I'm happy it worked out. Now to replace the sill... 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
