" Two comfortable garden benches combine to form a picnic table\u00A0that&amp;#039;s perfect for summer dining. What&amp;#039;s more, you can build this outdoor furniture\u00A0Voltron\u00A0using basic tools and materials\u00A0available\u00A0at any home center. \u00A0        The engineering involved in building this bench is quite simple,\u00A0and YellaWood has provided a\u00A0full cut list and plans\u00A0with photos to help you along the way. In addition to the stock lumber, you&amp;#039;ll need wood screws, hinges, and barrel locks to complete the table. A miter saw is also extremely helpful for cutting down your stock to the correct length and angle. Picnic tables make a great DIY project, but they are heavy and cumbersome to move. The added benefit of splitting a table into two, is that you can transport this table much easier\u2014simply pick up each bench on its own.\u00A0YellaWood estimates this project will take 5 hours, but give yourself a weekend if you plan on staining or painting it,\u00A0which you should.\u00A0 "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
