DIY Concrete River Table | How to Build a Concrete Coffee Table

I’ll show you how to build a DIY concrete river table / concrete coffee table. Check out squarespace.com/jonnybuilds to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain using code JONNYBUILDS.

This week I’ll show you how I built a round concrete “river” coffee table using conventional Quikrete concrete, rebar, and a welded steel 3 legged base. If you don’t have access to a welder you could make a version of this concrete coffee table by wiring the rebar together and using hairpin legs for the base. To create the river pottion of this concrete river table I used a foam insulation cut out to create a knockout within the concrete form. I placed a rebar grid on top of that form during the pour, and chiseled through the concrete slab to reveal the rebar within the table.

  • Very nice work as usual, but ouch! You need a hoist!! Thanks for the vid.

  • Would the concrete and steel be able to withstand the heat if I put this over a fireplace? It seems like it would make a great outdoor stove.

  • Another cool project. You never disappoint. Love the look of this table.

  • Love that patina look! It doesn't "hurt" me at all to watch the end (and all the lifting). Hope everyone is doing well!
