    Default What I have been making in the shed

    Has anyone tried making this small folding table. I have been making them for about 12 months and selling them as I travel around in the van but that has all come to a stop now.

    I would make them out of re milled pallet timber so the timber is free!
    Before anyone comments I only use food grade or pallets that are not sprayed.
    There is a sight giving codes of all classification of all pallets and some large retailers own the pallets like Bunnings for instance they are painted green or red I think.
    To get on with my little project this is where I got the Idea from Carl Jacobson SMALL FOLDING TABLE

    How To Make A Folding Table - YouTube Hope this works as I am not up to things now

    Last of all is there anybody out there that has tried this build and if so could they send me a post please

    Regards colbra
    PS I will take picture of one getting made and a finished one tomorrow I think ?

    I made a version of that from plans in a magazine back in pre internet days. It is larger and has proportionally thinner slats but it's essentially the same. I like it because it is so quick to set up and I use it for various things around home on a temporary basis.

    Hi Bob it takes me a long time now to make one table at the start of the project I could do it in about two days.
    Now about week I have the plan if any one wants a copy even its just to see how long they take sort of like a forum Olympics
