Creating your own large wooden coffee table is an easy project that will add an interesting and useful piece of furniture to your home. Before you get started, be sure to measure the area where you plan to place your new large coffee table to ensure the size is suitable. Read on for a step-by-step guide on how to make a large wooden coffee table.
Step 1: Gather Supplies
To get started, you will need the following materials:
- 4-6 pieces of wood (1x6x8 in size)
- Sandpaper
- Wood Glue
- Wood Screws
- Drill, drill bits and screwdriver

Step 2: Cut the Wood
Set the table saw to 4-6 inches and use it to cut each of the pieces of wood to size. Keep safety in mind throughout this step, as cutting wood can be dangerous.
Step 3: Sand the Wood
Once you have cut each piece of wood to size, use sandpaper to smooth out any rough edges or imperfections.
Step 4: Assemble the Pieces together
Once you have sanded each piece of wood, use the wood glue to glue the pieces together in a square shape. You may also want to use wood screws to secure the pieces together.
Step 5: Finish The Table
Once your pieces are glued and/or screwed together, use a drill to add any decorative detail you would like and use a sealant to protect your large coffee table from damage and wear.
