This is my first woodworking project. It’s apitong offcuts that I planed glued up and finished with teak oil. The 1x6s on the bottom align it with the opening of the fire pit. It’s going to live outside(obviously). What are your guys thoughts? I know apitong is hardy (this was trailer decking) but is a glue up like this going to survive in the elements or just warp like crazy? I was thinking about adding some some inlaid metal bracing to the bottom to bridge the seams with the outermost boards but it might be unnecessary. Any input is appreciated!
I have a 32” propane firepit and I LOVE it. Problem is kids and grandkids come over regularly and continue to use it “as a table” which drives me nuts. Anyone have ideas to DIY a top so that when not in use it can serve as a table and be protected? I was thinking of a plexiglass sheet- but not coming up with good ideas. Advice appreciated- TIA!
