I hated my old flimsy coffee table and I decided that I needed another one. After searching online for tables that I could build, my wife and I came across this one. Its large, sturdy and has the underneath shelf for additional storage. Plus the styling was cool too.
Built from Plan(s)
Estimated Cost
About 80 dollars.
Estimated Time Investment
Weekend Project (10-20 Hours)
Finish Used
To finish this table the first thing I did was coat the table with Minwax Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner. I did a double coat of that before I used Varathane Stain+Poly in Cabernet. I chose the semi-gloss. It took several coats before I got the color that I was happy with.
