Kitchen & Dining Tables
Quartz Top Kitchen Table
The above kitchen table features a Silestone quartz table top. Although, not as heavy as granite, the large quartz top is still heavy enough to require a custom table frame design. The table frame utilizes an extra leg, at the middle of the frame, to provide support to the top. Horizontal bracing connects all five legs together to create one solid and sturdy base.
10 Feet Dining Table
This dining room table was built by Cole in Alfred Station, New York. The table is 10 feet long and features a custom wood top to create the rustic element. The table frame is constructed entirely with Kee Klamp fittings, making particular use of casters to allow the table to be easily moved when necessary.
Butcher Block Kitchen Table with Integrated Shelving
This kitchen table was built by Mike in Malden, Massachusetts. The table features an integrated shelving unit with three shelves (including the table top). The shelving can be seen at the right of the image. The table top and shelving were crafted from four Ikea hardwood counter tops.
Butcher Block Kitchen Table
This kitchen table was built by Jeny in Arlington, Texas. The table features a butcher block table top and sits at bar height. Jeny utilized our Rugged Table Frame Kit to make the building process even easier.
Kitchen Prep Table
This kitchen prep table was built by Jeff for his home in Charlotte, North Carolina. The table sits at bar height and makes use of our Basic Table Kit for easy assembly. Jeff appreciated how quick it was to assemble the table frame using Kee Klamp. Here's what Jeff had to say of the project:
"I used the Kee Klamps to stabilize a commercial kitchen prep table. This table originally came with a shelf and was not useful to sit around. Removing the shelf and re-configuring with Kee Klamps, we can now sit around the table and the table is very stable."
Modern Kitchen Table
The above table was built by Paul in Montreal, Canada. The table features a custom top that can be extended by adding an additional leaf. Paul appreciated the simplicity of Kee Klamp and took full advantage of our free design assistance to come up with a concept that fit his requirements perfectly.
IKEA Top Kitchen Tables
These simple tables find their home here in the Simplified Building office kitchen. The tables feature a butcher block top from Ikea that is 61" long by 29 1/2" wide. The simple design uses four legs assembled using the Flange fitting, pipe, and a Plastic Plug to cap off the exposed end of pipe.
Narrow Kitchen Table
This simple table was built by Steven in Pleasanton, California. Steven needed something that would fit nicely in a small kitchen but wouldn't take up too much space. The resulting table sits at bar height and features an added horizontal brace, at the bottom of the table frame, to rest your feet when sitting.
Pipe Kitchen Tables
The above kitchen tables were built by Ryan in Hopkins, Michigan. The two separate, maple top tables come together to create one long dining table. A great idea that gives Ryan added flexibility. Ryan could even take the legs off one of the tables in order to store the table away in a deep closet, basement, or garage. Then simply bring it out and reattach the legs when guests come over.
Bowling Alley Kitchen Table
Leo built this kitchen table to fit four to six people. The table top and bench seating both feature tops built from a reclaimed section of a bowling alley lane. The table frame features extra bracing to provide enough strength to support the heavy tops.

Kitchen Islands
Live Edge Kitchen Island
This rolling kitchen island was built by Ben for his son's new condo as a student at LSU. Space inside the condo is limited, so Ben wanted to create something that could be rolled out of the way when needed. The table features a custom-built top crafted from a 700 year old Sinker Cypress tree and makes of our Basic Table Kit.
Granite Top Kitchen Table/Island
The above kitchen table was built by Jim for his home in Chicago, Illinois. The table features a granite table top that matches the kitchen cabinet counter tops perfectly. Since the granite top weighs over 225 lbs, Jim added an extra leg (in the middle of the table frame) in order to support the weight.
Granite Top Kitchen Island
This table was built by Jerry in Massachusetts. The table doubles as kitchen island and sitting area when eating. It features a granite table top and a Kee Klamp built frame that has been painted black to match the top.
Small Butcher Block Kitchen Island
Justin, from Oklahoma City, built this kitchen island as a Valentine's Day gift for his wife. He had seen similar ideas in high-end design magazines for $3,000 to $5,000, which was way more than Justin wanted to spend. So he decided to built his own using Kee Klamp. The table features two butcher block tops, and all in all, Justin spent less than $500 on the entire project.
Rolling Butcher Block Kitchen Island
This kitchen island was built by Margaret to give her kitchen some needed counter space. The table features a butcher block top that is 25" wide by 48" long. Margaret appreciates the versatility of the island, stating "The casters make moving it very easy, and it's simple to lock into place. I just love it".

Rustic Pipe Coffee Table
This DIY coffee table was built by Keren, one of our customers from Texas. The table frame fittings and pipe were treated with toilet bowl cleaner in order to "age" the metal and give it a more distressed look. The process worked well and pairs great with the dark, rustic table top.
Concrete Top Coffee Table
Another table featured in the Simplified Building office, this coffee table features a custom-built concrete table top. The top sits down in between the pipe frame. This is made possible using the M50 fitting, which creates the recessed look and attaches the top to the frame.

Pipe Coffee and End Tables
These two tables were built by John for his home in Flat Rock, North Carolina. One is a coffee table and the other, an end table. Both feature a rustic table top and a bottom shelf that is attached to the table frame using the M50 fitting.
Console Tables
Pipe Console Table
The above console table was built by Bob in Morristown, New Jersey. The table features a rustic design and utilizes four lengths of pipe, mounted to the boards using the Flange fitting, in order to create the different levels. Bob also used 8" hairpins legs at the bottom of the table to create separation and achieve a more unique look.
Pipe Console Table
This small console table features a unique design that places the wood tops recessed in between the pipe frame. This is made possible with the M50 fitting which creates the desired look and attaches the boards to the frame. The P50 fitting could also be used. This fitting would place the boards even lower and more recessed between the pipe outer frame.
Glass Top Console Table
This console table was created by Dinah over at DIY Inspired. Her unique take uses one of our Simple Table Kits flipped upside down to create the look. The glass table top simply rests on top of the frame and other accessories (like wood shutters, a large mirror, small stool, and other decor) work well to complement the look. She did an entire write up on the project, which you can read here.
Patio Tables
Dark Brown Top Patio Table
This outdoor patio table sports a sophisticated look that features a dark brown table top with a high-gloss finish. The table frame features casters on one side, that allow the table to be lifted from the other, and then moved when needed. This approach keeps the table from rolling away. However, if you use our casters, you could simply add them to all four legs and lock the wheels in place, to keep the table from rolling.
Backyard Bar Table
This table was built by Andy for the patio area in his backyard. The table features a custom table top built from reclaimed boardwalk wood planks. The table sits at bar height and utilizes casters to allow the table to be rolled when necessary.
BBQ Table
This outdoor BBQ table was built to house Ben's grill, materials, and grilling accessories. The table features concrete slabs used for the top and bottom platforms. Here's what Ben had to say of the project:
"I built this outdoor BBQ table after reading your blog. I've been looking at designs for some time. I originally wanted a steel structure as opposed to wood, but didn't want to weld pieces together. Once I discovered similar tables made from Kee Klamp fittings and concrete table tops on your blog, I decided on this design. The Kee Klamp fittings were easy to assemble, so I could focus on creating the concrete table tops."
DIY Patio Table
This table was built by Paul in Salem, South Carolina. The table features a custom white oak top and uses hickory wood dowels for the table legs (rather than typical steel pipe). It also features casters on the bottom of the tables legs for easy mobility.
Rolling Patio Table
This large patio table features a custom-built table top from reclaimed boards. The table frame, as well as the stools, are both built from Kee Klamp fittings and pipe. The table frame offers a rugged, yet functional design, by making use of casters which allow the table to easily be moved when necessary.
Pipe Patio Table
This outdoor patio table, features a custom-built top crafted from reclaimed wood boards. The frame is built entirely from Kee Klamp fittings and pipe, making use of the Flange fitting to support the top and as a foot for the table legs.
Rolling Patio Table
This rolling outdoor table was built by one of our customers to sit on their large back deck.

They then used Cabot's Decking Stain for the top and bench seating.
Conference Tables

"I stumbled upon Simplified Building while googling conference tables and instantly loved your ideas. It was super easy designing it with the help of your staff! I was able to design over the phone and internet with staff help and all was delivered to my office! The butcher block top and Kee Klamp base worked perfect for our look. It was great!"

This table was built by Kyle after he was given the task of finding a conference table for his company's office.

The above table was built by Gene for his creative agency's office in Marietta, Georgia. The table functions as a place for meetings and just hanging out.

Work Dining Area Tables
These dining tables were built by Troy for his startup in San Francisco, California. There are 12 tables total, allowing the company to place them next to each other, in order to create one long surface (as seen above).

Live Edge Pipe Table
The above table was built by Josh for his creative agency's office. The table features a black walnut, live edge table top.

Josh appreciated the custom design and cost efficiency of using Kee Klamp for the table frame.
Work Table
