I've since made a second for a friend. Pecky Cypress - mortise and tenon (Festool Domino) construction. Epoxy joints. Top and shelf are monolithic construction, but on sliders for wood expansion/contraction. Top is epoxy coated. All sides of wood are sealed. Final 3 coats of spar varnish covers everything. I keep it covered under a cover, so not too much exposure to the elements.
Large egg - table is 6'+ wide.

Barn wood is an interesting idea. I have made a lot of birdhouses out of reclaimed barn wood. sometimes the thickness will vary from one board to another. Other than that it could produce a very nice table.

People use cypress and cedar because they'll last the longest without being sealed. Actually, new growth cypress often isn't much better than fir, but the old growth swamp cypress (with 40 growth rings per inch on quarter saw)...I've used stuff that I pulled out of the mud in an old back yard that's probably been there for 50 years. Lasts and lasts.
I bought some heavy outdoor fabric and the little lady sewed up a cover in about an hour. Scotch-garded the hell outta it. It isn't water tight, but it lets the moisture out. Doesn't look like it, but that's about 15 pounds of fabric.

You only have to put the sliders on one side, the other you can permanently fasten. Or you can permanently fasten the center and put on both sides.
Alternatively, you can buy table top fasteners, which give you the same function, but attach differently - usually into a dado cut in the skirt.
