Is it A Table? Or Bench?

[smitty0312]

Yippee......the 1st folding picnic table/bench is done!! 1st one is always the hardest, so I hope the next goes a little faster than today.....I am pleased the way it turned out......I am thinking of adding a last name to the backrest to personalize it when it is in "bench" mode,,,,,,all made from pressure treated lumber(10- 2x4's).......glued/screwed joints.....cost is right at $50......comments as always

good job looks really good I would charge extra for the name on it but it is a great idea can't wait to see the rest of them are you going to stain or paint it? Redwood stain would be a way to go..

[Denny Knappen]

That is quite a project.

Very well done Dan. Two items for the price of one taking up less space at the same time. Nice concept.

[Scrappile]

Would have taken me a week to build, at least!!  Nice work!

[Scrolling Steve]

[smitty0312]

Way to go Dan, I had every bit of faith in you that you could build it. It looks great, it should see lots of use.
