Scrap material coffee table

I wanted to make a coffee table from the scrap material I have piled in the garage. I looked online through images of coffee tables and saw some really excellent ones. The one below I thought was really interesting, and it wasn't that expensive (listed at $200). To be clear, I didn't make this one!


Below is the one I did make, out of 1by2s and two panels from an old computer desk. I like the contrast between the metal and the wood. It turned out more or less as I had hoped. The joints are not square and there are visible screws, but that just adds to the rustic character!
