In contact with
The table is a necessary attribute of comfort, without which a modern person cannot do. As soon as the conversation turns to eating, far from home, a person begins to think of what a table can be made of. In nature, they find a convenient stump, at a construction site they lay boards between stools. But what about the dacha? For a comfortable snack in the summer cottage in the open air, you can build a wooden garden table with your own hands. This does not require extensive knowledge or special skills.
The main criterion for a country table is strength and convenience.
There are several options for making a garden table made of wood. Let's consider both the simplest and the more complex ones, but first, let's find out which of the tools may be needed for this work.
List of required tools
- Wood - the choice of material should be approached very carefully, we will dwell on this point in more detail, the main thing when preparing it is to take into account that its rigidity and weight will depend on the thickness of the working surface of the garden table;
- A plane - it may not be needed, but if the table top is type-setting (consisting of several boards), then with its help they can be more tightly adjusted to each other;
- A hacksaw for wood - working with an electric jigsaw is much faster and more comfortable, but not everyone has one, and electricity in the country is not always available, so we will strive for minimalism;
- A chisel - no joiner can do without it, making a table is no exception. A chisel is needed for cutting down patays;
- Nails and hammer;
- Roulette and level;
- Screwdriver - it is better to fasten some elements of the garden table with screws or hairpins;
- Sandpaper - needed for the final sanding of the garden table;
- Varnish - After the table for the summer cottage is assembled and sanded, you will need to protect it from environmental influences if you do not want to hide it under a canopy before it starts to rain.
How to determine the size of a street table
In this matter, you should proceed from the number of family members and guests who regularly take part in the feasts and add a couple more places to them just in case.
When deciding on the size of the table, take into account how many people need to be placed at it.
For a company of 4-6 people, the size of a street table for a summer residence will be 1200x800 mm. If the company gathers up to 10 people, then it will fit at a garden table from 1600 mm in length, and the width can be left the same.
It should be borne in mind that too large a wooden outdoor table will be difficult to bring indoors for the winter. To avoid inconvenience, its design can be collapsible.
The second important parameter is the height of the garden table. But everything is standard here, the countertop from the floor should be at the level of 70-90 cm, for people of average height.
Drawing preparation
If you have never made a table for a summer residence with your own hands before, then it is better to download the necessary drawing from the Internet. The abundance of simple and complex wood structures will give you wiggle room.
A couple of tips for those who want to make a drawing with their own hands or make changes to the finished scheme:
- Take the dimensions not from the ceiling, but focusing on a table of suitable dimensions in a store or at home;
- If the dimensions are already set, then it is easiest to make changes to them by multiplying or dividing all parameters horizontally and vertically by a constant factor.
Example: if you need to slightly increase the table in height and length, then you can take the indicator "1.2" as the coefficient. Multiply the height and length by it, and do not touch the width. You can do the same with any parameter.
We assemble an outdoor table for a summer residence by size
The easiest way is to show the assembly process for the most common design of a country table using an example with specific dimensions, in which you can make edits based on your preferences. First, let's designate all the details and their sizes.
Country table top
Let's take its size based on a large family of eight people. Length 1800 mm, standard width 700 mm. The thickness should be chosen based on the type of wood, but even with the strongest wood, the thickness should not be less than 20 mm.
The scheme of the country table.
Legs
The table legs will be at a slight angle for better stability and will be 750 mm long. The beam itself for the legs should be 100x50 mm in width and thickness.
Bottom beams
If it is assumed that the lower crossbars will serve as a support for stationary benches, then their length should be 1500 mm, width and thickness are similar to the legs. If the benches for the summer cottage will stand separately, from the table, then you can limit yourself to the length of the crossbar 1000 mm. There should be 2 such elements in total.
Upper beams
There should also be two of them, along the cross-section, the timber for them can be taken, as for the lower one, but you can also reduce it, because there will be no heavy load on these elements, they should be long along the width of the countertop, that is, 700 mm.
Stiffening rib
This element is attached in the middle of the tabletop to its lower part, the spacers will abut against it, in terms of dimensions it should be completely identical to the upper crossbeams.
Spacers
They are manufactured last, and the dimensions are selected based on the measurement of the structure. Initially, only their cross section is known - 50x100 mm.
Fixed benches for wooden garden table
If you decide to combine a table and benches in one design, then the length of the lower crossbars should be 1500 mm, as mentioned above. On the edges of these beams, two boards are laid on each side, the length is equal to the length of the garden table, and each is 125 mm wide.
A variant of a country table combined with benches.
In the case of a smaller width of the existing boards, they can be slightly moved apart, leaving a gap. The thickness of each board must be at least 30 mm, so that they do not break under a person.
In order to avoid sagging of the benches for giving during long-term use, the boards in the middle must be reinforced with a stiffener.
Table assembly process
Wooden garden table support assemblies
- Make cuts on the leg blanks at the top and bottom at an angle of 22 degrees.
- Lay the legs at an angle so that one side of them is overlapped by the upper crossbar, and the distance along the centers of the other ends is 1400 mm.
- The bottom bar must be positioned 300 mm from the bottom of them.
- Both supports must be completely identical. It is necessary to drill two holes at each junction of the legs with the rungs.
- After that, you can completely fasten them with bolts or studs.
Assembling a table top for a country table
- After pre-processing the ends of the boards with a plane, number them with a pencil on the back side. Place all the boards on a flat surface according to the numbering provided. Find the center of the future countertop and fix the stiffener to it using self-tapping screws.
- The length of the self-tapping screws must be sufficient to securely fix to the table surface. But screws that are too long can pierce it through, so measure the thicknesses in advance and select the optimal self-tapping screws.
- Flip the tabletop over and, with the help of a partner, place it on the established supports. Temporarily fasten it to the supports using nails or self-tapping screws.
- Then, when the structure is rigidly connected, you can drill holes for the bolts already in fact. Each board should have one hole connecting it to the top rungs on both sides. In the countertop, make the stays for the bolt heads using a larger diameter drill. Insert metal washers into them, in order to prevent the board from pushing through the bolt while fixing with a wrench.
Installation of street table spacers for summer cottages
After the table is assembled, measurements should be made with a tape measure between the edge of the tabletop stiffening rib on each side, to the lower crossbar, and sawed off with a small margin of the workpiece from the bar 100x50 mm.
An example of using spacers as a footrest.
The stock is needed to wash down the corners of the spacers. Saw off one side of the spacer at the desired angle and, with it attached, measure the second angle. Do the same with the second spacer.
They are fastened with nails or self-tapping screws, but you can try and make a bolted connection, in which case you will have a completely collapsible outdoor table for a summer residence. It remains to grind it with sandpaper and open it with varnish.
Other options for country tables
Garden table on a tree stump
You can do it even easier and assemble a country table with your own hands from scrap materials. Many people in the garden have stumps from cut trees that have not been uprooted. The table top can be adapted to just such a stump. And put small logs around, using them instead of garden benches.
Country table made of pallets
After construction work on the garden plot, pallets often remain from the brought materials (brick or tile), they can be used as material for a country table. You can build it with your own hands in 20 minutes. To do this, in addition to pallets, you will need 4 more bars.
Option for a country table made of pallets.
Fix them on the first pallet, and put the second on top, and also fix it. The table is ready, to make it look more presentable, you can sand the burrs and varnish or soak with oil. Instead of legs, screw on the wheels from the old chairs and a comfortable mobile garden table is ready.
A garden table is an integral part of any country interior. On the modern market, this product is presented in a wide assortment - these are products made of metal, plastic, natural stone and, of course, the classic version, tables for a garden made of wood. In this article, we will talk about the positive qualities of common options and give an accessible instruction on how to assemble a table with your own hands.
The tree is always relevant
Most garden furniture has always been made of wood. Almost everyone can make a table for the garden with their own hands, at least superficially owning a hacksaw and a plane. The whole process comes down to connecting a small number of curved planks and giving the furniture a presentation.
A few words about the choice of material
If you want your product to serve you faithfully for many years, then it is better to make a garden table from strong hardwood. Of course, the best option is oak, but the price here, even at cost, will be considerable. Therefore, as a rule, more affordable wood of larch, aspen, birch, linden or acacia is used.
Tip: conifers can be used for manufacturing, but they should be well prepared and covered with protective compounds beforehand. Otherwise, the abundance of resin can negatively affect the quality of the coating and your clothes.
For the countertop, the quality and type of wood is especially important, therefore, experts recommend not to save money and buy a good grooved board, the increase in costs will be minimal, but the appearance will pleasantly please you. It is advisable to collect a wooden garden table from a well-dried forest, so that later the details do not lead.
In addition, the tabletop and some individual parts can be made of thick waterproof plywood or YUSB board. Chipboard (chipboard) is less suitable, since this material is afraid of high humidity and will not last long in the garden.
Self assembly
Assembly instructions can be very diverse, everyone chooses what he likes best.
In the photo and video in this article, several interesting and accessible technologies are presented, but we will tell you about the simplest, in our opinion, installation option.
- As mentioned earlier, it is better to assemble the tabletop from a grooved board, so it will be completely monolithic... In this case, the joints should be glued with ordinary furniture glue for wood. In this case, we will talk about a solid product designed for a family of 6 - 8 people.
- Comfortable construction height for a standard dining table is 700 - 750 mm... We will make the dimensions of the top plate 930x1450 mm. For a table top, a board thickness of 20 mm is sufficient, but a table top with a thickness of 40 mm will look more solid and solid.
- The boards are joined on a flat, horizontal surface and knocked down with nails or self-tapping screws, two or three perpendicularly spaced bars of 50x50 mm... The bars are fixed at a distance of 300 mm from the edge.
Advice: since the wood is quite dense and thick, it is better to lubricate the self-tapping screws with soap before screwing in. Then they will enter the array much easier.
- Next, we move on to the arrangement of the legs. As legs, boards with a section of 50x150 mm and a length of 650 mm will be used. They will dock at the ends, therefore, in order to reduce the length of the fixing bolts or self-tapping screws, 1 sample is made in the middle on each leg about 70 mm deep and about 150-200 mm long.
- The legs are joined by their ends, and the selected grooves should be on the same level from the outside. A stiffening rib is inserted between two pairs of legs, the function of which is performed by a board 50x150 mm, about 1 m long.
- From above, the legs are attached to the strips that fix the tabletop boards... In the lower part, to increase the support area, two boards are knocked to the legs, all of the same section 50x150 mm. Long, slightly less than the width of the table top.
Important: the entire structure, with the exception of the tabletop, can be made collapsible; for this, furniture bolts with a diameter of 6 mm are used. Or collect everything on long self-tapping screws, but then the table will not be disassembled.
Do not forget that wood garden tables will be used outdoors, so all wood must be covered with protective compounds. Often one coat of stain is used to bring out the beauty of the texture and two coats of waterproof varnish.
Important: all wood, even before assembly, needs to be scraped and cleaned with a grinder or using sandpaper. Bevels should be removed from sharp corners, so as not to drive a splinter later.
Alternative constructions
A light coffee table is quite possible to assemble from wooden pallets. For this you need 2 pallets. The top row of boards should be ripped off, complemented by the missing ones and knocked down end-to-end, more tightly.
Thus, you get a monolithic tabletop. To increase the height, 4 bars from the same pallets are inserted between the pallets. It is advisable to install furniture wheels from below.
Plastic garden tables are used everywhere, their price is quite affordable. They are durable, have a neat appearance and can usually be disassembled quickly. But plastic rarely fits into the natural interior of a country cottage. Artificial materials, for the most part, have already become boring in the city, in addition, such products cannot boast of durability.
Garden wrought-iron tables are quite another matter; they are often true masterpieces of furniture art. Of course, only a narrow circle of real specialists can make such beauty with their own hands, therefore, the price of such products, frankly, bites.
It is quite problematic to make tables for a garden made of stone with your own hands. Alternatively, you can fold brick cabinets and install a countertop purchased in advance on top. A large piece of slate can also be used as a tabletop, but such an installation will require remarkable physical effort.
Table making option.
Output
It is often not so important that you have a wooden, stone or metal garden table installed. Any design can be successfully entered into the landscape design of the summer cottage, the main thing is to do it with love, because you are doing for yourself.
At the dacha there are items that are very important, but which you can do yourself, so as not to overpay too much, so our today's topic is do-it-yourself table... You are free to make it any size you want, to get a small headset table, and a large one so that the whole family can fit behind it, along with guests, as well as folding models, functional, original, which are used as decor, and so on. Below we will give you examples of each of the above groups, and also see how difficult or simple it is to make this important item.
Do-it-yourself wooden table for giving
Wood is relatively affordable and inexpensive, depending on what kind of material you want to use to create wooden table for giving with your own hands... In the overwhelming majority of examples, we are talking about wooden boards of one thickness or another that make up the table top, and wooden beams are used for the legs and supporting elements of the structure, an ideal material for this task.
You can talk about the advantages of boards for a very long time, but, first of all, it is the availability of the material, its cheapness, and, which is very important for home craftsmen and those for whom even a simple, responsible task - you do not need a lot of complex, expensive tools to work with wood and knowledge of the technique of work is not required. In principle, collecting a stool has been a must-have program for boys since school days and we assure you that table for giving with your own hands made of wood not much more difficult.
But before choosing among the models tables for giving with your own hands, drawings and schemes, you will need to decide which one you need, for what purposes. The degree of success of the design may very much depend on this, since the table itself will be good, but it will not be suitable for the task at hand. So, if you need a portable model, then you should not make it using logs or similar heavy material, since it will not be easy to move such a colossus. Round varieties look very interesting, but they are best used for filling, the same round shapes. After all, although the circle allows you to seat guests, there will still be noticeably less space on the surface of such a tabletop than on a round one. It is also important what the legs will stand on, if it is an absolutely flat concrete platform, then you can choose models with four straight legs. They look very elegant, and it is quite simple to make them. But if you want to arrange a feast on the lawn or you do not have confidence in the absolute evenness of the floor surface, then it is better to choose more stable versions of the legs, for example, oblique ones, which will allow you to maintain the stability of the structure in this situation.
Do-it-yourself outdoor table for summer cottages
Is wood the ideal material a table for giving a street do-it-yourself? Many doubt this, because in this case, water will constantly drip onto its wooden surface, both from rain and, for example, from irrigation, and this can negatively affect the wood. But, since all the positive aspects of this particular design are already very numerous, it is worth thinking about the special compositions with which the tree is painted. They do not change its structure, on the contrary, they can emphasize it, make it even brighter, even more "expensive", but at the same time, they prevent the absorption of water into the surface and the appearance of all negative phenomena associated with this. Therefore, just after the end of manufacturing, do not be lazy and do not save - cover the finished product with a high-quality paint and varnish composition.
There may be several zones on the street where it will be appropriate do-it-yourself wooden table for giving, drawings which you may have seen above. First of all, this is a summer terrace or a place for eating, located near the summer kitchen. There, you will need a large, wide table top, which ideally comes with benches or chairs of the exact same design so that it all looks like a single set. But not only for eating, we may need a table, but also for gardening work. For example, in a garden it is best to install it on some picturesque meadow, to fit into the landscape design. He is also needed on what has been done, because after him it will be possible to draw, and sculpt, and play board games.
We want to talk a little about special tables that are gaining more and more popularity among owners of summer cottages. The fact is that a new variety has been added to the traditional set - the bar counter. This is a tabletop of an unusual shape - it is located on very high legs so that the person who sits behind it and who stands behind it is the same height. Such entertainment as a summer cottage bar, decorated, for example, in a beach style, greatly decorates the site. In the photo you can see how this might look do-it-yourself wooden outdoor table for summer cottages.
In that, in the format of the bar, there are no special difficulties, you just need to understand what its size, height and width will be most comfortable for you. Another required design element will be the presence of a large number of shelves and drawers where you can put dishes and all other tools for creating cocktails. The material for the structure can be both boards and pallets - boxes, which are in great demand today, although you will have to work with it no less than when knocking down tables with boards for giving with your own hands... The fact is that in these boxes there is not only their shelf life, but also the initially good or bad quality of the wood, therefore, chasing the convenience of assembly, you can get a product of poor quality, crooked and with an uneven tabletop. And all because after one season of use, the board begins to "lead" in different directions, so it is worth not only buying high-quality pallets initially, but also letting them stand for some time before work.
Continuing the theme of the bar, we want to show you a few more high varieties. These are auxiliary tables-trolleys, mobile and easy to move within the entire site. They are equipped with small wheels, thanks to which they are convenient to carry, but also think about the material from which you will make them, so that in the end they turn out to be as light as possible. In addition, developing the idea of a bar counter, you can do something much more ambitious by making a circular countertop, for example, on the fence that frames the barbecue area. And the idea of decorating a round-shaped stand that bends around a tree is not only practical, but also very beautiful. Previously, we could only see the benches that were placed in a similar way, but it turned out that they could do the job just as well.
How to make a table for a summer residence with your own hands
To develop the topic of useful furniture, we will briefly show you the process of creating a side table. In this case, when solving the problem, how to make a table for a summer residence with your own hands, two main stages are used - these are the creation of the frame and the design of the table top.
To create a frame, an appropriate drawing is selected, the length of all the boards and beams that are part of it are marked out, and then they successively go astray. You can see the finished, assembled frame, decorated with a pergola element on the high back. This will not only decorate the craft, but such a perforated plane can be used to store kitchen utensils. On top, in the recess, you need to lay a tabletop made of even material, for example, a laminated wide board, so that there are no gaps between the boards in the surface, since dirt will easily get clogged there. A technical hole is cut for a metal sink purchased at a plumbing store, as well as all the holes for communications, taps, pipes that you will need. When installing the sink, the edges of the hole are carefully sealed, this will fix the element in the countertop, and will not allow water to penetrate inside. It remains only to connect the structure to the country water supply system, and drain the drain into a septic tank or a cesspool.
If you want to do everything yourself a table with a traditional shape, this will give you some advantages, as you can provide the tabletop with very useful functions. For example, make a small hole inside, in the center, where you can insert a large umbrella if necessary, protecting everyone who will sit around it from the scorching sun rays.
And in the case when there are special requirements for the functionality, you can go even further towards creativity. For example, make a recess in the middle of the table, inside which there is a cooler bag. Ice is poured inside it and bottles of beer are installed - for a long summer feast. For those who do not like beer creativity, they can place moss or unpretentious garden plants in such a niche, which will simply decorate the appearance with their presence.

When we use pallets, as we have already talked about, it is best to use a combination of them with other materials, or a non-standard shape for the finished product. How it can look beautiful to improve your suburban life, you can look at the example of creating tables for giving with your own hands, photo which is located below.
And also examples of more traditional tables with a "twist" - a folding element that makes such furniture extremely convenient to use. If they are not needed, then you can easily reduce their overall size by half, or, in general, remove them further until the moment when they are needed.
Diy table and bench for summer cottages
Ideal if you feel you have a sufficient degree of mastery - this is a whole set consisting of tables and benches for giving with your own hands.
The examples above show that these kits can be of different shapes and sizes, but at the same time they look very stylish and expensive, precisely because they are made in the same style and their designs overlap with each other.
