Awesome. Good luck with it!

After following a Home Depot video on how to build a picnic table, I quickly realized how flawed the design was. This video helped me salvage my project into something my family and I will love for years to come. Thanks for the video, it was terrific!

Nice job. Makes a confusing build into step by step easy to understand. Will be trying this ready for the summer.

Great Vid!! Im in London U.K and love that southern accent! But real simple video even for an idiot like me! TY!!

THX I'm using this to build one for my daughter in laws birthday. I decided to use regular wood instead of pressure treated because of cost and weight. I sanded each piece , sealed and painted it reedwood...Thx for the plans and teaching me how to use my speed square .{-; Pastor Chuck

Thank you. So, at 5:24, if you wre to add a 2x4 on the flat, making an L with the piece you are installing, you would run the screws in from the bottom, not the top, so there is no place for liquids to accumulate in screw head recesses. Just takes two more short 2x4s and about four to six additional screws per side. Same when building the seats. One less place for rot, easy to do, very little additional cost. Suggest using cabinet style screws where you can - better hold, tighter joint, IMHO.

I DID IT ALL BY MYSELF!!!!!! Thanks for directions 😁

On the ones I build, I angle the lower braces (bench supports) so as to decrease the chances of bumping into them. Gives a cleaner look, IMHO.

Great job.

You don't need to space wet treated lumber, it'll shrink as it dries, and if you space it, the gap will wind up being 2-3 times as wide as the space....

Built this table and it came out great. I needed 2 boxes of 2 1/2 1lb screws. 1 box almost did the job. I used a 20° angle on the 2 center braces it was a little off but it works. Thank you

Putting the legs on the wrong side if the brace was the second mistake. Buying that Chevy truck instead of an F-150 was the first. 😊

‘of’ not ‘if’. Senior moment.

Treated wood is a great way to get an infection if a splinter happens to find it's way under your skin.

I built it and sat on the seat but my feet don't touch the ground, what did I do wrong? Just kidding. About 20 years ago I built a couple for the yard out of Menards kits, they had the metal braces and such, all the boards were green treat. I let them dry out for a season or two then I painted them. They have held up for the most part but are getting wobbly now and the boards look like bananas in places, lol. If I was going to build again, I would go this route here. Picnic tables sure come in handy and if people know you have some, they are always wanting to borrow them. :-) Great video, thanks.

Welol I bought 2 kits from menards but I gottta put em together and I had no table or bench so I had to build something first to be able to assemble my picnic tables. Its always something but your design looks similar to my store bought ones ojhnly you got green treated n Im gonna have to stain mine to though ttheir legs were green treated that was it the rest will have to be stained or painted as they will be out doors year round. N we get snow up here. Nice Job thanx for the video

hahaha I know exactly what you are saying, number one issue I have is this thing is designed with high tip over risk, secondly the seat to table top gap appears too large....in fact, I forbid anyone to follow this design for the tip over risk alone.

Hell, I'm ready for some smoke housz BBQ I appreciate what ya did but 2-1/4" is too short... I would use 2-3/4" (all thread) decking screws with the nut and bolts... the only thing that I noticed that you didn't say... is when setting up the lumber for the top of seats and table... YES Choose the best side for the tops but always place the cup side (wood grain) downwardly, other wise after a year or two the edges (of the 2x) will warp upwardly. Boy Scouts moto... wood is gonna warp over time, best choose what direction before building.

Great 👍 job next time don't use treated wood for many reasons Worps really bad, bad cimicals in the wood that doesn't go well with bbq

I like your personality

Ok, one more thing. When tables are going to be out in the weather, put them bark side up. That why, they do not cup and hold even more water. Just saying. If there is waine, consider trimming the boards to a narrower width, maybe even adding another board. It may look ok at first, but you will not like it when all your tables are boards acting as cups.

Do you have a set of plans?

Why do the legs need to go inside the braces (table support)?

How come ya didn't put those screws on the INSIDE while attaching that seat brace on? USMC66'- / 77563

Cause I’m a wannabe carpenter! Thanks for the tip!!

Bet that gap on the bench pieces is super uncomfortable after a few minutes of sitting on it.

Question, maybe a stupid question but you said that you need 9 boards but the list only shows 8. I'm not a carpenter by any means so... be gentle. Guessing you cut them down but need to buy a total of 9?

Sorry about any confusion. Let me clarify. Out of the seven 2x6x12’ boards, you need to cut nine that are 72” long. These will be used for the table top (5) and the seats (4). Hope that helps! Thank you for watching and asking!

@@SmokehouseBayouSmokedMeatssorry, one last question. I don't have a truck so can't get 12ft boards. Can I just have them all cut in half so basically have 14 boards that are 6ft? No cuts are over 6ft so that sounds like it would be okay but unsure.

@@SmokehouseBayouSmokedMeats I just built it and man that's one solid table. I love it thanks! If anyone else wanted to know, yes you can cut the 12 footers all to 6 feet and you will still have the perfect amount of material. Yes you'll have to trim the excess inch or so off as was stated in the video. Works great, love it!
