JoshC1501 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 It's been awhile since I have been on the forum. Since I finished my Roubo have not had much shop time. Was in bad need for outside dining table and don't want to buy any junk, decided a hefty picnic table made out of left over white oak(knots and sapwood) from my Roubo build would fill the need and be fairly quick build. Found the basic plans online then modified significantly. One of the simplest projects I have done, but turned out to be one of my favorites. The Roubo handled these big boards with ease, it was awesome! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodbutcher74 Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Your table's a beauty. It must weigh a ton? It would probably ruin the look but have you considered putting wheels on it? Maybe cut out of so more of the scrap, if you have any left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
