Fine Woodworking

In this video workshop, Gregory Paolini shows you step-by-step, how to build a beautiful coffee table in the Arts & Crafts style. With its straight-forward mortise-and-tenon construction, and beautiful breadboard ends, the Arts & Crafts Coffee Table is an approachable project for any woodworker with intermediate skills.

In this introductory video Paolini gives an overview of the project, which is made from quartersawn white oak.

    So I just purchased my unlimited membership and when I go to the link above for plans that is the Taunton store. Do I not get a set of plans with my membership. Taunton wants another $11.95

      Unfortunately if it wasn't in the magazine it isn't part of the membership. Taunton Store plans are separate.
