Patio Table and Chairs Plan

Hello,

I am starting to think about this winter's project and I am leaning towards
a patio table and chairs. I have searched but I have only found the round
style of table, I would like to have an oval or rectangle - maybe a
removable leaf?

Table would be somewhat like this:

http://www.patiofurnitureusa.com/patio-tables/dining-tables/hanoverextensiondiningtable.cfm

The chairs I found some possibilities so I maybe can work with those plans.
I think I will use what they are calling an English arm chair for my chairs.

My question is:

Any idea where I may find plans for tables like that?

Thanks

Larry C

For the table, get a copy of Fred Bingham's book, Practical Yacht
Joinery.

Take a look at how you build a cockpit grate for a sailboat.

Describes the approach you need to take to build one.

BTW, $600 is not going to cover it, especially if you use teak.

Paperback from Amazon was $20 when I got mine.

Best $20 I ever spent.

As far as the chairs are concerned, you are on your own.

Thy are complex, time consuming, and require lots of jigs.

Good luck
