Hi guys! The DIY Modern Farmhouse Bench I built last year has been one of my most popular woodworking projects. I have had tons of requests for printable plans for that build this year.

I was also getting questions from people that want to turn that bench into a coffee table.

So, I finally decided it was time to draw up printable woodworking plans for this solid wood chunky Farmhouse coffee table.

Of course, the original photo tutorial for the DIY Modern Farmhouse Bench is still available. Printable plans just make life easier when you’re working in the garage.

And, build plan drawings can make instructions easier to understand. Since they are able to show details in a way that a photo can’t.

Printable Plans Include 5 Hard and 1 Upholstered Table Top Design

Let’s start with a look at the 6 coffee table top designs in the printable plans!

I used dark and light wood colors on the diagrams to make the different pieces easier to seen. You can go with all one color, mix and match stains, or even use your favorite paint.
