Furniture plan: outdoor dining set Cotiella diy

Furniture plan for Cotiella table and chairs from Neo-eko

Make this stable, sturdy garden table with chairs yourself with the help of our clear furniture plan. You’ll enjoy that for years to come! The manual and cut list are tailored to standard sizes of sheet material, but the sizes are also easy to convert for other standard available exterior wood. For the table (especially the top) and chairs, we advise to use a good protective lacquer for outdoor use; this way they are less sensitive to weather influences. Many joints are screwed, sometimes they can also be doweled. In the manual we explain how to do that. Finally, Finally, some recesses need to be sawn; this is also explained. You can have the sawing done by a professional, wood dealer or hardware store, but if you saw yourself you need fewer sheets. A clever cutting plan shows you how.

The design

We have of course tried to design an original and practical piece of furniture. With this outdoor dining set we have taken a number of specific things into account.
For example, table and chairs can be disassembled, for transport or to make them easier to store in winter. Table and chairs are solid but elegant in the modern style of Neo-eko.
Table and chairs are easy to move around.

Details

We have tried as far as possible to hide all screws. For screws that remain visible, you’ll find instructions on how to camouflage them. If you want to paint the sofa, you can neatly hide any remaining evidence of screws with help from some filler. Our furniture makers’ tips describe how to do this.

Making it yourself

Finally, the design is tailored to the possibilities and limitations of the DIY and his/her tools. If you have a handsaw (sometimes jigsaw) and drill and if you can handle them, you can make all our furniture, so to speak. If you have professional tools, it only gets easier. Note: if you make 4 chairs you have some job on the panels with sloping sides.

Adapt dimensions yourself

As you may have seen from the photos of made furniture, it is easy to make changes to the dimensions and/or design yourself. The clear cut list and furniture plans give you the confidence to do that.
