Craftsman-style furniture is popular for many reasons: it's attractive, functional, and the clean lines go well with many other furniture styles. But it's also a terrific style of furniture to build. The mortise and tenon joinery in solid hardwood makes this table fun to build and provides lots of satisfaction. This is not a tricky project to build, and it requires no specialized tools beyond a table saw, drill press, and router.
The project was originally featured in Woodsmith No. 112.
CONSTRUCTION: The Craftsman Coffee Table is 30" wide by 38" long by 17" high. Our table is made out of solid quarter-sawn oak, as were the original Craftsman-style designs. Mortise and tenon construction is used to join the legs to the end rails and the stretchers. And we used an interesting, time-saving technique to create the mortises for the spindles on the ends of the table.
