Mini Patio Table
Custom Size For Space Saver
Custom made for my small patio space. I did make a few killer mistakes (not pocket hole fillers on tops, used wrong color wood filler and made the holes on top vs bottom). Other than those glaring issues, its the perfect size for me. You can really use this same design for any size table.
What you will need
2x4’s for the legs and bracing
2x6’s redwood for the table top edges
1x2 redwood for the table top center
outdoor all weather finish - 3 coats
pocket screws
glue
How to do this project
1
I cut the edges of the table top first and put them together with pocket screws and glue. Then while that was drying I cut the bracing and legs of the 2x4’s, creating notches in the center and top. The table top itself actually rests on 3/4” notches made in the top of the legs. Then I cut the table top center, measure piece by piece for the angles and separated by 1/4” scrap wood. They are also screwed in from the bottom. Lastly I installed the legs and bracing before adding 3 coats of finish.
