Tips & Warnings
Cure or stain the wood before attaching it to the top, especially if you intend to use the picnic table outside. Untreated wood will warp over time. The recommended lumber size is 2 by 10 inch, but you can make the table top bigger or smaller to suit your space.
The 3 1/4-inch bolts stick out, especially under the table once the lumber is installed. You can use a hacksaw to cut the excess off to prevent the bolts from scratching people's legs or buy 3-inch bolts instead.
