@buildtomade: Day 2: DIY gift series. I’m going to show you how to build this kids picnic table with just four 1x4 furring strips and a 2x2 for about $15. Cut each board into two 35-inch tops and one 23-inch leg. Angle in parallel both ends of every leg at 30° for that classic flare (use a rafters square for this). Cut your 2x2 into two 31-inch supports and two 14-inch pieces with slight angles, then assemble the legs with the 14-inch piece at the top and the 31-inch piece in the center. Lay the four 35-inch boards across the top with a 2-inch overhang, add the seats, and screw everything together. Round the corners with a jigsaw, sand, stain (optional if outdoors), and you’ve got a simple DIY kids picnic table for the holidays!
