Inside the 13-page plan

  • An exploded drawing that shows how every part goes together
  • Dimensioned views of the finished build, in feet and inches
  • Materials list and hardware schedule, with standard lumber sizes and metric equivalents
  • Cut list for standard lumber, so you can cut everything before you start assembling
  • Clear illustrated step-by-step assembly drawings: one job per step, every part drawn, fastener positions marked

Safety: Rated 9 lb (4.1 kg) on the canister shelf, 6 lb (2.7 kg) on the mug shelf and the top, 2 lb (0.9 kg) a peg and 30 lb (13.6 kg) in the bay. Not anchored: empty, it tips forward when pulled at the top with about 6.7 lb (3.0 kg). Never a handhold or a step; keep small children away; move it empty, by the base. Nothing of ours over the machine; keep 1" (25 mm) between the machine and the tower. Tested at 7 days (step 10).

Built to work

Countertop Coffee Station with Mug Shelf

Built in home workshops more than a century ago, and redrawn for the way you build today.

Rendering

Step by step

Every part drawn. Every fastener marked.

Each step is one job with its own clear drawing: the parts it adds are shaded, every nail and screw position is marked, and the hardware and tools sit right beside it. An exploded view shows how the whole build goes together before you make a single cut.

Materials

One station, any size; buy flat, straight boards (sight along them and across). Cutting layout: Fig. 2. Work safely. Clamp what you saw and drill; glasses and a dust mask; a small part (a peg, a block) is cut in a miter box, never held by hand; rip the plywood on a firm support.

Where does this plan come from?

It is an original Square & Furrow design for today's homes, produced with AI-assisted tools and checked by our build model. You get a materials list, metric sizes, a cut list for standard lumber and clear illustrated step-by-step assembly drawings, every part drawn. Sizes are in feet and inches, with metric alongside.

Can a beginner follow it?

Yes. Each step is a single job with its own drawing: the parts that step adds are shaded, the nails, screws and bolts it drives are marked where they go, and the hardware for that step is listed beside it. An exploded drawing at the front shows how the whole build goes together before you cut anything.

What do I get?

A 13-page print-ready PDF (US Letter) to download after purchase. It prints well at home or at a copy shop, and reads fine on a tablet in the workshop.
