The nice weather is at our doors and it's time to start the BBQ and eat outdoors on the patio. In this episode, I'm making a cedar patio table for a friend and maybe you'll get inspired to make your own.
This plan and many others are available on my website thewoodpecker.net

Dear Alain, A very nicely made outdoor table. I think the heavy duty subframe adds to it's charm & as your rightly pointed out, won't be falling out soon. No matter how hungry your client is or his/her friends are, they can rest assured that a ton of food won't make it collapse because of weak structure. Very well done. Kind regards.

I like the thing that looks like a carrot peeler you used to round over the corners.

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 5 лет назад

It's a nice tool, but it's a pain to use when the grain is changing direction. Peeling in the grain can quickly become a disaster....

I have a friend helping me in the shop making a kitchen cabinets and just for glueing he is a great help. Your patio table turned out amazing. I'd love to be your helper and shop apprentice. Cheers

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 5 лет назад

Maybe one day you will... I have another couple from France who will help me at the cottage in September. Maybe one year it will be you? But I know you like to travel and Canada is super big, I don't travel a lot in my own country...

@AndreaArzensek 5 лет назад

@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker Oh, Barbara and I love to travel and we'd love to visit Canada and help you on your cottage :)

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 5 лет назад

This can be done, It's like an infinite endless work place over there. But you have to be very brave, hares are all over the place at night LOL but like I say to every French person who come to visit my shop; why in the hell are you thinking coming here to visit! They're no castle here.

@cobberpete1 5 лет назад

A very nice table. And I agree better to be safe than sorry with the brass screws. I have shouted many a swear word when the screws have snapped off

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 5 лет назад

Yes these screws last a life time but screwing them is a pain they break easily when they're screwed in.

@danbarrett6113 4 года назад

@Christombcharcot 5 лет назад

Put some varnish under the base (the very down bottom feet of the base) and place the table on the grass.

@jacilynns6330 5 лет назад

The nice thing about cedar is that it lasts pretty good outdoors. The bad thing about cedar is it's annoying tendency to warp at the worst times. I hope you got some seasoned cedar. The design is popular with a lot of people, not my style as I prefer the much more complicated hex/round ones myself. I may have to build a custom outdoor table soon...the people who are dissatisfied with what is available want one with butterfly flip up extensions. Still it looks very nice and "Canadian" stable *^_^*. Ever notice that us Canadians tend to build things to hold a virtual ton of weight?

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 5 лет назад

Cedar is great, but it cost a fortune, but like you said Canadian like to make stuff durable and strong :)) Go ahead build one, and nothing is better than the smell of cedar :)

@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker well he wanted do use teak first which is really expensive. I'm still trying to get my canoe project started but popping my hip out of place really didn't help me. After two weeks and a lot of chiro its almost normal again

@scottrobertson9788 Год назад

Lovely work, table looks wonderful! What thickness were the boards you used for the top, 5/4? I was thinking of using 2x but really like the look of yours! Inspiring to watch, thanks for posting!

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker Год назад

the outside is 8/4 but the interior planks are just 4/4. It's a nice design, it's exactly the same top construction of my cottage patio table that I did 12 years ago

@scottrobertson3274 Год назад

@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker thanks for the reply! Can you remember how much of a reveal you left between the top frame and the interior boards? It seemed like they were set slightly lower? Awesome channel, it’s like listening to GSP teach woodworking!

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker Год назад

Thank you. They are no reveal, the rabbet is the same depth as the position of the groove in the side 8/4 piece, so when you pass your hand on the top you feel the boards but no height difference. You now I have the plans for this on my website in the plans section. thewoodpecker.net

@olivermatics2328 5 лет назад

Hello, it's a nice table! And some adjustable deck/lounge chairs for eating and sun-bathing. Have you had already / will you have similar or same project?

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 5 лет назад

The only chaise longue I made was at the cottage. We had a contest Renée and I, and both of us made a chair, I don't know if you've seen it?

@olivermatics2328 5 лет назад

@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker Yes, I've seen it. From wood and trees. But I think those aren't comfortable for eating ((-:

@grotekleum 5 лет назад

Nice work. I can't help thinking though, that the table top needs to be thicker - perhaps by a deep edging strip; it feels (looks) a bit out of proportion with the base to me.

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 5 лет назад

Yes with those BIG legs the top looks flimsy :)

@adriannatale2790 2 года назад

Hi Alain, awesome table build. I’m working on a cedar table right now and wondering what kind of finish you would suggest using? Thank you very much.

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 2 года назад

If you want a oi finish, in fact it's the finish I love using on cedar it makes the wood pop, I make an equal mix of spar varnish, linseed oil, and a solvent like paint thinner or mineral spirit and apply this on the cedar, this makes a super finish with a decent protection. My foldable cottage cedar table has been finished like that and look as good as the day I brush it on 10 years ago, But it's true it's always inside when we're not there or in winter...

@pauld502 3 года назад

01) How much material did you plane off of the 4x4s? 02) What size mortices did you make and are the tenons available for online purchase? 03) What size BrassScrews did you use?

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 3 года назад

1) only enough to remove the round over 2) 14mm and I bought them online at Lee Valley but t hey are available everywhere where they sell Festool supply 3) #8 1" or 1¼" This I'm not 100% sure

@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker Thank you so much for responding to my questions. I look forward to attempting to construct this table. I only hope it comes out half as well as your product.

@migoalaso 3 года назад

What would be an alternative to fastening the legs if I don't have a joiner?

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 3 года назад

You could use real tenon and mortise, it takes longer to make but it's a super nice joint

@jasonkeller5732 4 года назад

Does using rabbets for the top help with movement. Also will all the screws in the top prevent movement too?

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 4 года назад

The screws are only there to prevent the planks from moving, The way is build is like a door, only the rails are glued to the stiles

@jasonkeller5732 4 года назад

@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker Alain Thanks for your quick reply and explanation. I want to make a cedar table with mitered corners and I realized I wasnt taking movement into consideration.

@sydney-1004 3 года назад

You use wood outdoor or indoor

@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker 3 года назад

Cedar is mostly outdoor wood, it's soft but resist to rot very well. so this is for an outdoor table.

@rlynch109 4 года назад

Can we get a set of plans?

Yes if you go to my web page thewoodpecker.net in the plans section you'll find this plan and some more
