Table number 2 of 3 - small

The weather was nice enough this weekend to allow me to work on the table for my small egg. I started out with the dimensions from the plans for the long table from the BGE website, and did all my calculations, from there.

It was real fun, trying to build a "squared" table, when I have no flat or level surface upon which to build it, anywhere near my tools.

Once again, I offer the disclaimer that I am in no way any sort of carpenter or woodworker...

I'm at the rough-sanding phase, and plan to stain it red mahogany, when the weather turns warm again.

For anyone who is curious, the fancy-shmancy "you don't have to pre-drill holes for these" lag screws (the black connectors you see in the picture above) THEY LIE. They split the wood just like any other big screw connector, if you don't pre-drill the holes.

I have my big ol' 16-inch paver ready to sit under the egg (with feet, of course), once I am able to move the table onto the deck.
