We were inspired to build a dog kennel that was more functional and looked incredible as a piece of furniture in our home. After looking at many different options we elected to build our own. Since building our first one we have built many for other people. Often shipping is one of the largest challenges to us building one of these for many of the folks who reach out to us. To answer that we thought it would be great to share our technique and create a set of plans so that you can build one of these beautiful pieces! It can be done with a basic set of tools and woodworking knowledge. If you have more tools that is great also! Minimum tools required: - Circular saw - Pocket hole jig - Drill - Sand paper - Bar clamps - Hammer - Square Suggested tools: - Table saw Naturally more tools can be used to save time and make parts easier however that is all you need to build it. The plans are to create a kennel that measures 37 1/2" long, 25" deep, and approximately 33" tall. You can adjust them to be any size you would like, with some basic woodworking knowledge and good planning ahead of time. Unfortunately right now we are unable to help with custom sized plans. If you need help anywhere along in the build please send us a message and we are happy to help. Thank you very much for checking it out and we look forward to seeing pictures of your new kennel! From our pups and us, Happy building!
