This is a table I made for our back porch. I used redwood I had leftover from a picnic table that I built earlier. The tile was something the contractor had left after he built our home. If you look closely in some of the pictures, you will see that I didn’t have enough redwood to get one last table leg. So I took 2 short pieces and made one long piece. It’s a pretty simple design. I used dowels to hold it together.
I haven’t built many pieces (I’m still a newbie), but this table has to be one of my favorites. There is no better way to wind down the weekend than to sit in a rocker on the back porch and enjoy a good beverage. This table sits between two rockers and is perfect for resting drinks, cigars, outdoor candle, etc.

Looks Great watch those cigars even though redwood is some what fire resistant.
