What an amazing, fun project. It took us both about 3-4 hours to complete it (we are novice tool users). The total cost was less than $100 at the time of this build on July/2015. Here are the parts list, if anyone is interested. 6 qty 2x6x8 - for seats + crossbrace 5 qty 2x8x8 - for table top 2 qty 2x8x8[PT] - for legs 3 qty 2x4x8 - for cleats + supports 1 box 2.5" deck screws 1 box 4" deck screws 8 qty 3/8 x 3.5" carriage bolts with nuts + washers 1 tube indoor/outdoor construction adhesive The videos was pretty straightforward. We took the suggestion of 01gt46 where he/she mentioned that the crossbrace needed to be 68.25" - this ended up working perfectly for the seats. Things we learned on the way: - Pilot/pre-dill the holes especially for the bottom leg supports since the 2x4 can easily split - do not overdrive the screws on the cleats Thank you for Ask This Old House crew for taking time to show us how to build, and also for users like 01gt46 for adding their helpful tips for this project. This thing is built solid and we are excited to sand and stain it in the next week or so. #2023 June Update# The picnic table does showing signs of aging but going strong. It has had multiple coats of paint and stain, but the top now has started to deteriorate. I plan on replacing the top with new boards this summer as the rest of the table is pretty solid. It's been left outside in the elements, rain/snow/hail all it's life. It's a testament to the awesome plan and build.

Matthew Elliott all you need to do is give yourself a straight edge on the top to measure off of, set a spacing that looks good and cut one angle. Then you can go to the table set the leg where it will live take a measurement and cut the same angle use one as a pattern. For the cross piece don’t over think it measure a 2x6 multiple by 4 and add 1/4 so you can have a 1/8 gap. Make a mark on each leg measure that and add the number you got from earlier. There is better ways to do it but that’s the simplest way I can explain how to make it work it’s just dimensional lumber not like a mistake is going to cost you a fortune

This table arrived well packaged and on time. kzitem.infoUgkxn94T8Mu1iMnsLCMNOI9srXSsLkI4JXKW Like another reviewer advised, I pulled everything out and made sure everything was included (everything was!). I built it alone and it took me about an hour. The color is great and for the price the lift part works well. As others have mentioned, it’s not the smoothest opening/closing, but it works. The screws do show, but I plan to order white sticker covers if that bothers us too much. Really happy with this table! UPDATE: it’s been over a year since we got this coffee table and we still love it! It gets HEAVY use as our dining table, foot rest, and school desk. Over time, the opening and closing mechanism has gotten smoother. I added a new photo with the white screw cover stickers. They blend in perfectly and make it look a little cleaner. 100% recommend!!!

I built one of these about six years ago using this video. I’ve loved the table, but because of the non pressure treated lumber, I’m about to rebuild all of the flat surfaces with new wood. The only two modifications I will make are: 1. Build the whole thing out of pressure treated lumber for longevity if you plan to use it for more than four or five years. 2. Add extra cleats to the underside of the tabletop very near the ends of the table to prevent the boards from becoming uneven over time as they age.

I just built mine. It came out great - rock solid, very heavy (I used all PT wood), very comfortable. Some learnings/comments: 1) I made the spaces between the 2x8s and seat boards bigger so that leaf and other debris would not get stuck. My spaces are probably about 3/8" 2) After assembling the table top and seats, I used a saw guide and ripped the ends of the table top and benches so that it was a nice straight line. I then set the saw at 45 degrees to give both the top and bottom edges a nice bevel. 3) I put 4 cleats on each bench instead of 4. I had the wood from fall-off anyway, so I think you will too. (I saw that in another set of plans.) 4) I started by cutting the table cleats first at 32" and wish I made them longer. 5) If you think you might want to drill an umbrella hole in the future, use a 2x6 for the middle table cleat. 6) After some research, I decided to have 5" clearance between the table edge and the bench edge. It is a little bit of a lean from the bench to the table, but you can move up a bit. It makes it very easy to get in and out and some people can actually stand up in the space between the table and bench. I recommend you give some thought to this and do some testing with a table with an unattached bench. My A-frame cross members ended up at 71" for this. 7) I wish I put the legs in a little more towards the center of the table. Maybe just on the inside of the cleat. The 4 end seats, the easiest in-and-out seats are just a little too small for comfort. I would check to make sure 3 people can fit between the legs comfortably though. It might just be a trade-off. 8) I did not glue the legs to the cleats or the benches to the A-frame. It is still rock solid. I may be moving this in my pick-up truck (or the next one I build!) as house warming gifts and want to be able to disassemble. 9) Careful when you cut the legs. I cut 4 perfect legs - short. My total length was 35 3/8" So if you cut the 2x6 at 35 3/8" square and then cut a 28 degree angle at each end (parallel!) you should be good. 10) My table cost under $200, even with my leg-cutting mistake. HD sells a smaller version for $510 where I live! 11) Before I made the table, I made 4 saw horses, 2 each from the first 2 designs below so I had plenty of working surfaces. Build the first ones first; it will be easier to get all 4 the same height that way. kzitem.info/news/bejne/zKSlnKWGkJh1pI4 12) I was able to do all of this myself, just needed help flipping moving the table off the work area before adding the benches. (I own a lot of clamps. You need good surfaces to work on.) Any questions, just ask.

Greetings Simple build and great if it is not exposed to the weather. When I built my last three tables from rough-cut Red Pine 2x6, I used a countersink bit to pre-drill all holes to avoid splitting the ends and used 3" deck screws throughout. To avoid face screwing the seats and top, I added cleats underneath; screwing to the legs and cross-brace horizontally then from the bottom of the cleat into the seat and top boards. Added effort and screws but there are no divots in the flat top surfaces for water to puddle and ruin all your hard work. It would also be simpler, in some ways, to apply stain and finish prior to assembly. Applying a top-end finish will do a lot to keep the project useful for many years. Remember, adhesion and cohesion - water loves to migrate between all the tight joints and bacteria etc. migrate right along with the water. Wood decomposition depends on moisture and unprotected, close-fitting surfaces. And, from the comments, using half-lap joints for the cross-braces is easy to do and much stronger/safer than trusting screws alone. I am not sure I want to trust two or three screws to hold the joint together after a few seasons outside when uncle Bubba and aunt Freda take a seat. Happy Woodworking

Great video and great instructions. Was a breeze to build. The layout of the a-frame isn't laid out for you, but they give you enough information in the video to figure it out. I made my cross braces 74". That is a good length. I am 6'5" and I like that I can stand between the bench and the table then sit down. Some picnic table you have to sort of step into and sit down all in one motion. Not this one.

Just finished two tables. From a bunch of comments, I went 34" with my cleats, but tucked the legs in a little more. I didn't use adhesive but went an extra step and prepainted all pieces with primer and Benjamin Moore's arborcoat. I used an electric plane to clean up surfaces prior to painting and painted all sides, with two coats on the top and a little touch-up paint at the end. 72" length for the cross pieces worked for my taste as I can stand between the table, and bench easily. I can also cut them shorter if needed. I used a heavy-duty hook and loop to attach the benches to the crosspieces to allow for portability/removal to get under the table. Sitting at the far edge of the bench didn't result in any movement. The table rests on 1'x1' bluestone so my landscaper doesn't chew up the legs with his string trimmer. I used 3" screws and drilled the legs into the cleat first. Then attach the cleat with legs to the underside of the table. Things I would do differently next time is use a 2x6 cleat for a center umbrella hole. Purchase 2.5" screws in bulk. 3" lag bolts would be sufficient as I could have used a 1" spade bit to bore out a hole so that the bolts/nuts would have been flush with the leg. Overall, happy I went with a solid paint vs. stain/spar polyeurathane. I can leave that for the next time.

For some reason picnic tables always seem too low to the ground. To me it's like going back to my elementary school and sitting at the lunch tables where your butt feels like your only a few inches off the ground. I want to make sort of a high table picnic table.

Great video guys. I used your video to guide me in the construction of a picnic table yesterday and it worked out great. Thanks.

No measurement needed. Hold or clamp legs at true 90 and scribe with a square.

Just found this channel, and boy I'm happy I did. I'm in the my fathers buisness of renovation but currently learning carpentry.. I have a question.. I"m actually building this for interior use and I would like conventional chair seating on the other side. Could I chop off the bench support on one side?

Hi there. If I just wanted to build the table , without adding the seats, would it still be sufficiently stable, (without the bracing effect of the seating?) Thanks!
