Composite lumber outdoor furniture
I want to use composite lumber for a picnic table tops and possibly
seats. Has anyone used this material for furniture applications? I realize that I have to add some bridging for the table and the seats. I want to use this because it is the best option available to me as getting to cedar or white oak is not a possibility at this time. |

Use composite lumber for the built-in, outdoor, porch benches on many of the new homes I build. I like it, comes in many colors and/or paints well, is easy to work with as it can be cut/routed like the real thing, dimensionally stable, and will last for a loooong time. Based on that experience, I would say it would be tops for your table tops and seats. -- www.e-woodshop.net Last update: 2/20/07 KarlC@ (the obvious) |
