XL oversized table

Posts: 1
Long time reader, first time poster.
For a while I considered upgrading from a large to an XL so two weeks ago I did so. With the old egg I just had the little wooden side pieces so I decided this time around I was going to do it right and build me a table with lots of room for prep and storage. As a result, here's my new egg and table. I first found a cover that worked for an 8' table and then designed my table around working with that cover. I built it out of pine 2x4's with select pine boards to cover most of those up to make it look nice. Used wood pre conditioner, one coat of stain and three coats of spar urethane. All that is left is a storage bin for charcoal and install hooks to hang grilling utensiles on. Pretty happy with the final product!
