plans to build a picnic table bench?

Answer 1

Do you just need a Bench? Or the entire setup?

Plans certainly might help; but if you take a look at any sold at an HD or Lowes; you can pretty much determine the simplicity of a basic design.

Using treated lumber; and galvanized hardware; it's pretty much just determining a size; cutting lumber; IE: 2 x 4's; spacing them for drainage; bracing on the bottom side with 2 x 4's spanning the width at both ends, and/or a middle brace; cutting 45 degree angles (Or less) for legs; X the legs; attach them to the bracing; perhaps run a brace the distance from one leg to another; adding to stability; Flip the structure over; apply a sealer if you feel the need; and get ready for your next picnic.

ADD ON: If the benches are to be moveable; the above suggestion remains for both the table and benches. If the benches are to be attached; then 2 x 4's attached at a comfortable height and distance from the Top; to the table legs; will support the bench 2x4's
