Picnic Tables (or sometimes a picnic bench) is a modified table with built-in benches on both sides of the table that is for the main purpose of eating a meal outdoors. It is not documented when the first picnic table was used but legend has it as early as the late 1800′s, picnic tables were used in public gathering places throughout small towns.
Originally, all picnic tables were made of cedar, pine, and other hardwoods. Over time, both the residential picnic table and commercial picnic table have been made from everything from commercial-grade plastic, PVC, steel, aluminum, recycled materials, and plastic coated metal.
A common picnic table can be constructed using 2′x 4′ or 2′x 6′ hardwood – standard stud size. To assist in making the picnic tables last over time, wood sealers, stain, or traditional paint has been used before or after construction is complete. Since most hardwood will crack, warp or rott, protecting the wood is highly suggeste to extend the useful life of the picnic table.
Traditionally, picnic tables have a simple construction plan – the table-top and bench-top boards are attached to the trusses or beams using rust-proof wood screws or galvanized nails. The legs are typically secured by using commercial grade carriage bolts fastened by nuts and washers. This helps make the overall frame of the table stable and solid so that it will stand up to heavy outdoor usage.
