coffe table from square tubing.

admin

Heres my last project.Wanted to make a kind of rustic looking coffe table. Since I was not  able to avoid grinding, I had to paint it, so it did not come out that rustic any more, but still.. not a bad table in my opinion.






Reply:Krikey!  Coffee table for Zeus?  Nice simple design, but don't expect the wife to lift that.
Reply:Nice looking table, really nice.  I like the distressed edges.
Reply:I like the gussets for strength!OP…nice build and I guess steel don’t cost as much where you are cause that looks expensive and that looks strong enough to work as a HD workbench as well….

Reply:I also made holes in the endplates of legs, with a M16 nut welded on the inside, so the table could be leveled(probably couple of mm adjustment is needed) with M16 bolts. But I need to find some sort of plastic caps for the bolts, so it does not scratch the floor. Something like this:
