Urgently need two outdoor tables
Our father, Valentin Nikolayevich, turns 80 in October.
Father (he is twice in this rank), he is grandfather (four times), he is great-grandfather (seven times) - an initiative person, not indifferent to life, formerly a political officer, but loves working with wood.
He built a lot of garden furniture do it yourself.
I would like to organize his jubilee in the fresh air, as the children at hand (great-grandchildren) would frolic in the fresh air, and usually we spend holidays in the warm season, outdoors.
But October is an unpredictable month for the weather.
Therefore, if weather permits, we plan to put tables on the open veranda of the bathhouse, by the pool. And our barbecue area is not far from the bathhouse, which will allow us to serve kebabs hot.
Tables are available, but their width corresponds to the norm (80 cm), and with this table width, there may not be enough space on the veranda.
Therefore, having estimated all sizes, the father decided to make two lightweight tables, do it yourself60 cm wide.
After the roof was closed, there were only not edged boards for a table with four legs, no material was gathered, so it was decided to make tables on the basis of a school desk.
For two fine days, Valentin Nikolaevich made two tables, stable, pretty, and we think that they will last us a long time.
In this article, in detail, with photos, we will talk about the work process.
