We recommend using granite, concrete, or some other fire safe material for the table top surface. The supports and sides can be wooden though as the heat and flames will not be touching them. We have had customers use wood for the tabletop surface successfully with these following precautions: 1. Make the cut out for the pan 1" larger than the drop in portion. So on this 36" x 12" pan make your opening 37" x 13". This will give your pan 1/2" on each side in case there is expansion due to heat. 2. Add our flame guard to your burner pan. Adding this will protect your table from winds tossing the flame onto the wooden table top. 3. Limit how much fire glass is in your burner pan. If there is too much glass over the burner pan it can disrupt the gas flow from the burner and cause the flame to burn closer to the edge of the pan and the wooden table. We recommend using just enough fire glass to cover the burner so it is no longer visible but no more than a thin layer. 4. Use the burner carefully. If you are having strong winds it may be best to turn the flame down to keep it controlled and safely within the burner pan. Sometimes it's better to have a smaller safe flame than a large unruly one. if you have any other questions our tech support team will be happy to help over the phone or email!
Great catch Armen! You are correct that the overall dimensions are 38.5" x 14.5". It appears that Mike misspoke and gave the wrong number for that measurement and somehow that snuck by our editor in post production. We will let our editors know and see if we can fix this!

What is the size of the table top you have in the video? What is the best table top dimensions for a 36x12 burner?
Can these be dropped into a wood/bambo outdoor table?

If the pan is 12” by 36” with 1.25” lip, how could the overall dimension be 12.5” by 38.5”? Isn’t it 14.5 by 38.5?
What am I missing?
