Free table plans: dining tables, coffee tables and more

Each table project gives you the top, the legs and the frame as parts, with their sizes, materials and drawings.

Tables are built in different ways: a top on legs with an apron, a frame of metal tube, panels of plywood or chipboard, solid wood boards. The project page shows how the table is made, what it is made of and how many parts it has, so you can pick one that suits your tools.

When you choose a table plan, check the height, the size of the top and how the frame holds it: a long top needs an apron or a rail between the legs. A table is easy to fit to your room — open the project and set its length and width; the legs and the frame follow.

  • The top, legs, aprons and rails with their sizes.
  • Materials: sheet, solid wood board, timber or metal tube.
  • Cutting maps for the sheet parts and the bars.
  • Drawings of the parts with their holes.
  • How to build it, step by step.

Typical table sizes

Common values that make a table comfortable — adjust them to your chairs.

  • Dining table: 720–760 mm high (28–30 in); allow about 600 mm of edge for each person.
  • A dining top is usually 800–1000 mm wide; 1600–1800 mm in length seats six.
  • Coffee table: 400–500 mm high, often a little lower than the sofa seat.
  • Desk: 720–750 mm high and at least 600 mm deep.
  • Leave at least 600–650 mm of clear height under the apron for the knees.
