I built this Octagon Picnic table for an upcoming crawfish boil we are having this week. took about 6 to 8 hours ot build over 2 days. I found the plans online and modified them slightly and for the top and bench I cut as I went along. I used 3 2x4x8s and about 15 2x6x8s. Came out really great and sits 8 people comfortable. I do recommend building in the area you want it as it is really heavy . I built the top in the garage and assembled the rest in the back yards . Materials ran about 160 since I used treated wood
