Industrial Cart Coffee Table
The girls from Shanty2Chic have done it again! This industrial cart coffee table turned out absolutely amazing and I am so happy they came to me to help them draw up the plans. This low profile coffee table would look good in any living room and is super easy to build. Build one just like Ashley’s following these free DIY plans. Enjoy!

Thanks so much for the plans. I just finished this table and linked back to you. I’m new to blogging, so please let me know if I’m giving you the correct credit. Love my new table, thanks so much! http://uncookiecutter.com/2015/04/industrial-coffee-table/
Awesome job April! Thanks for sharing!
I would like to build this industrial cart coffee table in a larger size. I need this to be 60″ long and 40″ wide. I also want to raise the height of this with 12″ sides which I hope looks appropriate. I need more height and can’t figure out another way to get it without going with 12 inch sides. Would this be appropriate or should I do something else? If so, what else could I do?
Thank you so much,
Shirley
Thats a serious coffee table. I think it would fine and I would say go for it! If you do I’d love to see how it turns out, so if you wouldn’t mind posting a picture here in the comments that would be awesome!
I LOVE this coffee table. Where can I find the industrial style casters?
Evie, Northern Tool and Equipment. If you look in the materials sections of my plans you will see I’ve included a link to buy the casters, with the option to buy them fixed or swivel.
What brand and color is the stain on this coffee table?
Cathy, it is Varathane Dark Walnut stain.
I love this table but would like it a bit smaller. Having a hard time figuring out the cut lengths. I’d like it to be 45 X 29…help!
To shorten it you’ll just need to subtract 3″ from any lengthwise boards. However, adjusting the width would be a problem. This coffee table uses dimensional lumber stock widths so unless you have a way to rip the boards down to decrease the width, I would say a reduction in width wouldn’t be worth the pain.
Thank you. I think I figured it out. I’ll post pics once I get it done!

I finally finished building my version! Thank you so much for the plans!
Wow Ashley! That looks awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Where did you get the corner brackets and how do you get the metal dark like in the pics?
Those brackets are from Home Depot and just painted with satin black spray paint.
Reattaching photo that was removed:
Hi,
What stain/varnish/polyurethane did you use to get this color ?
Love how easy it is to follow your plans! I added the pipe handle to give it a bit of personalization.
WOW! That turned out great. Like the addition of the pipe to the end.
Thank you so much for the plans! I am seriously in love with this piece! I made this because my kids love playing card and i knew a table like this would be perfect (and it is)! Because it was going to be used a lot I didn’t want to put decorative items that would break or clutter it up so I came up with this tic tac toe game. This too was fun to build!
Did you just spray paint the casters i guess?
I have a quick question. I need to make a square coffee table (to fit in the middle of my sectional) I think I will only be able to fit a 30×30….should I size the wheels down to 6″? I don’t want the wheels to look funny on a smaller scaled table. Any thoughts?
Hello! I have wanted to make something like this FOREVER and even bought some casters and hydraulics for a lift top. any chance you’d work with me to get my measurements right with these factors? I have two small casters and a larger one.
Thank you so much for the plans. I needed it less in the width so I decided to subtract 1 2×8 off the top and adjust the measurements. I also raised the base for attaching the 6″ caster wheels I got. https://uploads.disquscdn.c… https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
