Lanai Dining Table
anai Dining Table
We love outdoor cooking and dining with friends and family, but we ran out of room at our
poolside table. So we built a new one! Now we have ample space to accommodate the food off
the grill--and lots of neighbors, too! The tile top allows you to coordinate the table color with
the rest of your outdoor furnishings.

Hardware
  125 2-1/2” wood screws
  50 1-1/4” wood screws
*Notes on Materials
The wooden finials which we used for the table "feet" are actually designed to be used on a fence
post. They can be purchased most building supply stores, and have a large screw already
attached in the center. The ones we used are 3 inches high. You can substitute any exterior-
rated finial you like, but if it is higher than 3 inches, be sure to adjust the length of your legs
accordingly, or your completed table will not be the correct height.
When choosing tile for this table, consider that you must cover an area measuring 52 x 28 inches.
If the tile you choose will not fit into these dimensions evenly, you can either alter the
dimensions of the table or –use our much easier solution—simply cut the tiles into interesting
shapes.
To install the tile, you need a plain, metal trowel for spreading the mastic and a rubber-surfaced
trowel for applying the grout. If you need to trim the tile to fit the table dimensions or want to
cut them into pieces for a mosaic effect as we did with our table, you also need a tile cutter.

Making the Legs
1. Cut four legs (A) from 4 x 4 pine, each measuring 26 inches long.
2. In order to properly support the table, the legs must be dadoed. Refer to Figure 1 to dado
2
108203077.041.png
the end of one leg (A). Note that the dado is 1-1/2 inches deep on each side, and 3-1/2
inches long.
3. Repeat Step 2 to dado the ends of the remaining three legs (A).
Adding the Table Sides
1. Cut two long sides (B) from 2 x 4 pine, each
measuring 55 inches long.
2. Miter each end of the long sides (B) at a 45-degree
angle, as shown in Figure 2.
3. Note that the miters are mirror images of each other.
4. Cut two short sides (C) from 2 x 4 pine, each
measuring 31 inches long.
Figure 1
5. Miter each end of the short sides (C) at a 45-degree
angle, as you did for the long sides (B).
6. Place the long sides (B) parallel to each other on a level surface, with the miters facing in.
Fit the short sides (C) between the long sides (B), matching miters on all four corners, as
shown in Figure 3. Apply glue to the meeting surfaces of the miters, and screw through
each mitered joint using a 2-1/2-inch long screw on each side.
Figure 2
Figure 3
Attaching the Legs
1. Turn one leg (A) dado-side down, and fit the dado over one corner of the side assembly, as

108203077.042.png
shown in Figure 4 . Apply glue to the meeting surfaces, and screw through both the long
side (B) and short side (C) into the leg (A). Use two 2-1/2-inch-long screws on each joint.
2. Repeat Step 1 three more times to attach the remaining three legs (A) to the three corners of
the side assembly.
3. On the bottom of each leg, we attached a finial designed to top a fence post. Mark the
center bottom of each of the legs (A), and screw in a finial.
Adding the Inner Supports
1. Cut three center supports (D) from 2 x 4 pine,
each measuring 28 inches long.
Figure 4
2. Fit the 3 center supports (D) between the two
long sides (B), edge up, approximately 11-7/8
inches apart, as shown in Figure 5 . Apply
glue to the meeting surfaces and screw through
the long sides (B) into the ends of the inner
supports (D). Use two 2-1/2-inch-long screws
on each joint.
3. Cut eight short inner supports (E) from 1 x 2 pine, each measuring 11-7/8 inches long.
Figure 5
4. Fit one short inner support (E) flush with the top of the long side (B), between the short side
(C) and the center support (D), as shown in Figure 6 . Apply glue to the meeting surfaces,
and screw through the short inner support (E) into the long side (B) using three 1-1/4-inch-

108203077.043.png
long screws. Repeat this process to attach the remaining seven short inner supports (E) to
the long sides (B).
5. Cut two long inner supports (F) from 1 x 2 pine, each measuring 26-1/2 inches long.
6. Fit one long inner support (F) flush with the top of the short side (C), as shown in Figure 6.
Apply glue to the meeting surfaces and use four or five 1-1/4-inch-long screws to attach
each of these supports (F) to the short sides (C).
Figure 6
Adding the Trim
1. Cut two long trim pieces (G) from 1 x 8 pine, each measuring 66-1/2 inches long.
2. Miter both ends of each of the long trim pieces at opposing 45-degree angles, as shown in
Figure 7 .
3. Cut two short trim pieces (H) from 1 x 8 pine, each measuring 42-1/2 inches long.
4. Miter both ends of each of the short trim pieces (H) at opposing 45-degree angles, as shown
in Figure 7 .
5. Fit the long trim pieces (G) over the long sides (B), exactly matching the miters as shown in
Figure 7. Apply glue to the tops of the long sides (B) and screw through the long trim
pieces (G) into the long sides (B). Use 1-1/4”-long screws about every 4 inches.
6. Fit the short trim pieces (H) over the short sides (C), exactly matching the miters. Apply
glue to the tops of the short sides (C) and to the miters. Screw through the short trim pieces
(H) into the short sides (C) using 1-1/4” screws about every 4 inches. Finally screw at an
angle through the ends of the short trim pieces (G), using one 2-1/2” long screw on each
joint.
