Started building a picnic table out of recycled 2x8's today for my parents. Will post pictures later.

I finally got around to doing a half assed job of putting a roof on my firewood rack using the siding samples I got from work.


You can see my projector screen laying down in the background!

This is the framework of the picnic table, which was built at a certain height so that my step-mom can sit on the table top and watch the kids in the pool. The picnic table was built to avoid paying $170 for a building permit for a small set of steps/platform "deck" beside the pool.

More of the table in it's almost complete stages.


Table completed!

The picnic table just needs a bunch of prep work, lots of sanding basically. Then it's going to have the top of it stained, and the rest painted the orange color of the object (arbor) in the background of the middle picture of my last post.

Good job.

I recently saw a bench that foods out into a picnic table. Looks super neat!

I want to build something lightweight like that to lug around to softball games!
