Need a cheap new garden tabletop

polkadot100

Hi guys!

Our lovely new (last year) garden table blew over in the wind and smashed I have had a quote to get new glass cut but it's cheaper to buy a whole new set!! (It is rectanglular with rounded corners and hole for parasol).

I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for alternative table tops that maybe I can cut myself or can get cut cheaply or maybe just a rectangle of wood I can lay on top of the frame (what type of wood would not warp outside?)

Thanks

marine ply will last for yrs.
last one i did for free, was using a steel plate that came with a new fridge freezer.
it was a flat plate with the four sides raised up about 2 inches.
turned it over and it was a perfect for a garden table top.
white paint spray. job done.

or,
£30 for decking to make a table top for your old table.

Thanks both! Moss5 that table is pretty cheap, how does that work do they have those in every store on Sunday?

That's how it should work. Early birds get the stock.
