How to make a wooden folding picnic table?

Hi All, 

 

So happy to have found this workshop community. I am keen on making my first wood project in a decade!

 

I want to make a folding wooden picnic table like in the pictures. I needed helpwith the below questions if someone could assist: 

 

- Am I going to be able to find all materials at Bunnings? If so, what should I ask for?
- Would I need to waterproof the wood/ paint?- What do I need in tools to make things easier for a novice like myself? 

Any pointers to get me started are welcome! Or if you think it’s too tough for a novice, let me know also :smile: 

 

Thankyou!

Please keep us updated, @smileyclaire! We'd be thrilled if you could share some pictures of the construction process. They would be really beneficial to any other members who want to give this project a go. Reach out if you get stuck over the weekend; we'll be waiting to assist.
