    Another winner. I reckon that will get a lot of use. That blackbutt is a beautiful timber. Love the video and the end product. 🙂👍👍

    We kept finding we needed a folding table. This is so easy to store. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxStL0QRChBju4aQlnTrRgBZvafFog0KU3 Opening and closing is easy as well. It has a great handle for carrying around the house. Its pretty lightweight and slides around easy. We bought it for our daughter’s first sleepover. Breakfast was a blur - but 12 7-8 year olds fit at the table with room to spare. We used it at thanksgiving and 6 adults fit comfortably on each side plus 2 on either end for a total of 8. Super easy to clean up afterwards as well.

    Great idea! I love that it folds down, taking up much less room than one that is in a fixed position. I may just use that idea on my deck!

    This is amazing, and I’d love to attempt this in my own rental place. I was wondering if you had any advice for if our railing is square concrete and wouldn’t be able to have the lip for sturdiness (the blue part of your diagram?). Would that be possible at all? Assume there wouldn’t be anything to hold it in place to counter any weight/pressure

    • @SmallFryCreations
      @SmallFryCreations  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thats awesome. If you can't have the lip I would just make the back piece a little longer and it should be long enough to hold in place. If you put rubber like we did under the part that sits on the concrete that would also stop it from moving. Hope this helps and happy building :)

    Ainslee is there anyway to seal merbau to stop the tanning from leaching out and staining the balcony.

  • @chrisdurrer6508
    @chrisdurrer6508 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great job. How do you think blackbutt or spotted gum will fair with leaching tannins? You didn't mention tannins and Im tossing building the whole thing as you did but at that stage use a tannin remover first before oil? If i do this do I risk warping the whole thing by using water on it b4 oil, or do you think it should be ok? Thank you!

    • @SmallFryCreations
      @SmallFryCreations  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Chris. Thank you. I haven't had any issues with leaching. I recently refinished the bar for the client as it was just over 12 months old and it was still perfect. I just lightly sanded it and re applied the finish. Haven't had any trouble. Hope this helps :)

    What if the balcony has a round metal structure? Does this work?

    • @SmallFryCreations
      @SmallFryCreations  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes I believe it would. You would just want a tight fit and as long as there was also support lower down on the balcony wall you would be find. The back piece of the balcony bar stops any swing it may have.

  • @RonaldJayBuayan
    @RonaldJayBuayan 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    hi great video.. i was wondering if you are using 1" or 2" thickness for the bottom support? like are those 1x2 inch or 2x4inch?

    • @SmallFryCreations
      @SmallFryCreations  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The timber itself is 20mm thick and the supports at the back between the bar bar and the balcony glass I think from memory were about 38mm. This measure was base on the particular balcony I was working on. They may not be needed. Hope this helps 😀

    • @RonaldJayBuayan
      @RonaldJayBuayan 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Small Fry Creations thanks for responding.. i meant your bar top support which you have 5 bottom supports.. are those 20mm thick as well? or all the panels/wood you are using are all 20mm thick?

    • @SmallFryCreations
      @SmallFryCreations  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No worries. Yes they are. 5 supports under the bar top are 20mm thick and 50mm wide
