I've been wanting to build a table for my BGE for over a year. My BGE sits in a nest, but it's always inconvenient to find a spot for the stuff I'm grilling or for grilling accessories.
I didn't want to buy more wood for this. I've had some white oak boards I bought freshly cut over 8 years ago and have been waiting for a project. I also have a bunch of ipe deck boards I bought from the Habitat Restore.
The table frame and bottom shelf will be white oak and the top will be ipe.
The two boards that make each leg are joined at a right angle and held together with 3 dominoes for alignment and Titebond 2 glue.
The stretchers and aprons for each shelf are held together with dominoes. I really like the Domino. I did mess up on the Domino placement on the top aprons. I'm going to fill them with half dominoes.
I attached the shelf frame to the legs with 4 1/4" carriage bolts at each corner. After all this time, I figure the wood is free. The nuts, bolts, and washers are the most expensive things on here. I drilled 1/4" holes for the bolts and then chased it with a 9/32" bit 1/4" deep to accept the square base underneath the lag bolt head.
