Picnic table - PEP BB dimensional.straw.table

So what i like about this is me and another fellow work at a saw mill, I am the miller and he is the guy who brings in the logs and does the scaling.
These slabs came from one of the few old growth cedars on our island.
The picnic table will measure out to be about 8-9 feet long and 4 feet wide. I am hoping to build 2 benches to put on either end so that more people can eat visit at the table.

it is very heavy for one person to move!

Found the perfect 2x12s which require me to not cut more lumber. They came from our islands local Free Store. They were the stair treads.

I made a picnic table out of some wood my neighbor was throwing away.

Howdy, here is my picnic table.  I repurposed some lumber from various jobs and only had to buy eight boards for this project!  I didn't have all the materials at one specific starting point, so I tried to include a few boards mixed in here and there when I brought in new wood.  I used cordless power tools: impact driver and circular saw, a miter saw, measuring tools: tape, rule, and square, and #9 x 3" torx head exterior wood screws.

I used some clamps and shims to space the boards uniformly throughout.  Pine is a wonky wood with a mind of its own to move, needed a little assistance to straighten it out.

The table is seven feet long, 34 inches wide, and 32 inches tall.  The benches are wider than normal to accommodate the American sized bahonkas or allow cross legged sitting.  At 27 ish inches per butt, that allows ample room for six to be seated three per bench.
