Rectangular Folding Table and Folding Bench Options

Tabletop Design

During the checkout process you can choose the "checkerboard" design or all the boards going in one direction (same price). See photos at left (L-R: "checkerboard," one direction).

Seamless Tabletop

L-R: Standard, Seamless

Our Seamless Tabletop option is ideal for use in an enclosed patio or indoors. It is not designed for tables that are always left outside in year-round weather conditions. Outdoor tables need room to expand and contract due to the constant changes in moisture and temperature. Our standard tabletops have a 1/16-inch separation between the boards to allow for this movement. Seamless tabletops do not provide this "breathing" room.

Screw Placement

Tabletop and benchtop slats are attached with small stainless steel screws. The standard design is to have the screws showing, flush with the slats. But, if you don't want it that way, just let us know in the comment box and we'll screw them in from below.

Umbrella Hole

Want to enjoy an umbrella with your table? We do not sell umbrellas, but we will drill a two-inch umbrella hole for you at no charge. Simply select this option at check-out. A plug is included with the umbrella hole option– see images at right.

Squared or Rounded Corners

Another custom option you may choose, at no additional charge, is to have the corners of both your table and benches be squared (technically, 3/16" radius, for structural soundness), slightly rounded (1/2" radius), or fully rounded (1" radius). The photos show an 8-Foot Picnic Table on the left with squared corners, and our Kid's Picnic Tables on the right with fully rounded corners (1" radius). The 1/2" radius rounding is a compromise between the two (see drawing at right). Just choose which option you would like during checkout.

Finish Options

Your furniture can be finished in one of five ways (select during checkout):

• Premium Sealant

  If you want to keep the natural wood tones with a translucent Alkyd oil based product. This finish will hold the surface color for an average of 4 years.

• Unfinished

  Lets you apply your own stain, or let the wood fade to a "weathered look" in a few months.

• Off-White Oil-Based Primer

  If you're going to paint in a light color. (We apply two coats.)

• Gray Oil-Based Primer

  If you're going to paint in a darker color. (We apply two coats.)

• Wax Finish

  If you plan to use your furniture indoors and would like to keep it looking great without sealant or paint.
