A thorough walk through of the materials and steps to build an 8' picnic bench from Douglas Fir. Build your own picnic table with better materials and a way more solid construction than the kits you buy at Home Depot for half the price. You can substitute your own choice of pressure treated or other wood.

Would you use outdoor deck treatment for the picnic table to keep it longer?

@MechanicalMike 4 жыл бұрын

You certainly can. In my experience, it really doesn't last that much longer. The treated wood tends to start splitting sooner. But I also live in a dry climate

How much money do you save making your own. Or rather how much cost to build an 8ft table?

the cupping of the wood top should face DOWN. as the top cures/dries it will flatten out. if you go cupping UP, the cupping will get sever in a years time. a picnic table allows the wood to air out evenly so you should have no warping over time.

The cupping does face down, crown up. If you do it the other way it will split the wood over time
