I’m not exactly a master woodworker… but that’s what makes this project so much fun! Last year I built a balcony table out of scrap wood, and it turned out surprisingly good. This time I decided to level up: I bought proper lumber, fired up my router, and set out to build a matching coffee table with hidden storage under the lid.

From designing the whole thing in Blender, to struggling (and finally succeeding!) with mortise and tenon joints, to 3D printing my own router jig when nothing else worked — I definitely learned a lot along the way. There were moments of frustration, plenty of sawdust, and even a few near-disasters… but in the end, the results speak for themselves.

If you’re into DIY projects, beginner woodworking, or just want to see someone figure things out the hard way, you’ll probably get a kick out of this build. Plus, I added some cool finishing touches like a drip rail, brass hinges, and gas struts to make sure this table isn’t just functional—it’s unique.

Stick around to the end to see it sitting next to last year’s balcony table build. Not bad for a “non-woodworker,” right?

I've run out of covered shelter to continue to work on WetCoastFab projects. That's been blocking me from getting stuff done, so it's time to put something together for the winter.

I had a trailer full of gravel and got stuck pulling it up my rough driveway. The only thing I had on hand was my bush Sidekick, and I was surprised!

It's a good idea to take a moment or two to check your equipment once in a while to make sure it's not going to try and kill you!

Using the right tool for the right job is pretty important. Sometimes the right tool is the tool you have available.
