The World's Most Expensive Cheap Coffee Table

Top: IKEA as-is, $2.
Shelf: IKEA as is, $4.
Metal separators and legs: $70
Cordless drill: $140 (?!!)
Bit set: $10

Total cost: $226.

I think I'm going to curl up in the corner and weep.

Must've been one heck of a cordless drill. At least now you can use it on other DIY projects, right?

Haven't actually bought it yet, just started adding up what it would take to finish it (legs, drill, bits, etc.). My dad swears he can get me a nice Craftsman for $50.

I think it's going to be my Christmas gift.
