  1. Looking at BBQ table, can’t find 1×1’s at Lowe’s, Menards
    or Home Depot, any suggestions on a substitute for this item?

  2. Buy in larger dimentions (1×2 or 1×3) and rip down to final width. You can take a 1×2 and rip it in half if you have a table saw, or a 1×3 and make 2 rip cuts to get 3 total 1×1 pieces, etc… It would be very tricky to do with a circular saw, but you could get it done with a good straight edge guide.

  3. 1×1 would also be the same as a 3/4″ square dowel, which I know they carry at Lowes. They usually come in 36″ or 48″ lengths, so you can pick up 2 of those and then cut to length and be good to go. That would likely be the easiest if you don’t already have the wood or have access to a table saw. Good luck!

    • Built this table in a few hours. Great directions on the project and turned out great. Will make a great side table for my BBQ.

  4. Do you have any plans for a grill gazebo? A shed of some sort to cover a BBQ pit

  5. I used glue on the joints and pocket holes for the table frame. Gonna maybe fill the rest of the screw holes I couldn’t hide with some plugs but using a unique paint job and silver screws, it kinda looks like added hardware. This was one of my very first builds (beside my table saw workbench) and I love the way it came out! I also took a 1×2 and ripped it in half with my newly founded workspace and it worked great. Happy building all!

    • Oh, I also added a paper towel holder on the other side and painted the slats gold, frame black, and legs grey for my footbal loving husband 🙂 If he let’s me modify it after the fact I also wanted to put casters on one side for better mobility.
