Red Oak Coffee Table Kit
This kit includes all the materials needed for the base plus an additional four 1 x 6 x 48 in Red Oak boards, which can be glued up to make a beautiful 24 x 48 in tabletop. These boards are surfaced-two-sides with square edges. Our hardwood isn’t a finished thickness (hit or miss) and may still require you to flatten, plane, shape or sand your boards to fit your project.
Coffee table build instructions can be found here.
Premium Quality
Our premium hardwood is 100% clear grade on one side. You can expect no wane, rot, splits, cracks, checks, chipouts or pith.
Kiln Dried
Kiln drying allows us to control the air flow, temperature and humidity so that the hardwood dries 6%-8% uniformly and can be finished to a smooth surface.
Surfaced-2-Sides
All lumber starts off rough. We surface two sides to a smooth surface so it’s easier and quicker for you to start on your project.
