Mind including time spent, tools used, cost of materials, and cost of sealing it off?
So far though I like them. The first set up not to fond off though looks skinny in some places. Still nice job though.
If you're talking about the picnic tables then:
The first table took around 7 hours total, but I had a lot of thinking and planning to do which is included in that time, I also had to make 3 store trips which is also included in that time, cutting and assembly was probably around 4 hours, I was figuring things out as I went.
Tools used: Compound miter saw, cordless drill, speed square, combination square, tape measure, screws, carriage bolts, ratchet, wood glue, sandpaper. That's about it for tools/hardware/fasteners.
The second table took 3 hours, again I was kind of planning and cutting as I went, and I was doing it in the dark.
Same tools here.
Large table was around $85 in lumber/fasteners.
Small table was around $40 in lumber/fasteners.
I didn't seal it because it's already all pressure treated lumber, nothing more needs to be done to it.
The mantle I built, I didn't really log hours, the lumber was around $120, overall probably took maybe 6-7 hours to build.
I used screws, brad nails, wood glue to assemble. Same tools.
The desk I built was just 2x4's, 1x12's, screws.
