Used as a coffee table the cobbler's bench is one of the most colorful and practical adaptions of Early Americana. The bench pictured and described, which is a faithful reproduction, will enhance the beauty of any room with  traditional decor.

I love cobblers benches, dad made one many years ago for uncle, and it turned out to be the discussion of many a party and get together. You can use the cobblers bench for a coffee table, end table, or even to work on in a real life working environment.

The schematics of this plan are good, they assume the builder already has a grasp on the fundamentals of woodworking. Have fun!
