Building a 12 x 5 ft picnic table for my in-laws as a Christmas gift. Metal work complete, just need paint and the wood screwed on. Right now I can get 2 3/8 new drill for $1.00 per foot so it might be a little over built. Square tubing is 14g 4 x 2 picked mainly to look proportionally correct.

Overbuilt trumps under built in my book. Nice job!

I'm with everyone, build strong and build once.

Finished the table. Family was very happy. Unrelated but the wife wanted to help out on our land so I put her to work cutting pipe with the plasma cutter.

Looks great Joe! I always like to get my wife to make a cut or do something little with a tool during a project. Makes me feel good and she appreciates the experience... well most of the time. :laughing:
