Making a Walnut Coffee Table

FUSE Member Kevin Cohen building a coffee table.

Kevin Cohen wanted a new coffee table for his home but found prices too high, so he decided to make what he wanted himself. Kevin didn’t have any woodworking experience, so he took FUSE’s Intro to Woodshop to learn the basics and gain confidence using the machinery. Designing his own coffee table, he referenced other tables and received helpful insights from FUSE staff. Now that he’s made a coffee table that he’s happy with, Kevin hopes to make more furniture for his home. The coffee table was just the first step towards his goal of becoming a skilled furniture maker.
