Picnic Table On Removable Wheels

Picnic Table On Removable Wheels FARM HOME Food “My picnic table is made from red oak so it’s quite heavy Heavy enough that I didn’t want to drag it around by myself ” says Robert Daniel Lindamood Whitleyville Tenn He solved the problem by putting removable wheels on one end of the table “The wheels allow me to move the table easily ” says Lindamood He bought a pair of 10-in high pneumatic wheels at a surplus store and made an axle for them out of 1 1/2-in thinwall tubing He screwed a pair of 5 by 4-in wood blocks to the bottom of the legs with U-shaped notches cut into them that fit over the axle “To attach the wheels I just lift one end of the table and drop the blocks over the axle ” says Lindamood “The blocks are positioned slightly above the ground and stay on all the time ” He built the table itself from salvaged slabs from a sawmill “I’ve used the table as a scaffold and even as a sawhorse when cutting lumber ” notes Lindamood Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Robert Daniel Lindamood 199 Clark Hollow Rd Whitleyville Tenn 38588 ph 615 699-2192
