Looks real nice Neal. That BBQ sounds good.

Plenty of that famous banana pudding your mam makes and everything should be just fine

Put a wing nut driver on the screws still sticking out and break it off even ...

Good job Neal, looks fine!

Reagrding what MrQuatro said, if it really bothers you could use cap nuts. But it is fine as it is now.

As long as it takes the weight of beer bottles that's all that matters.

That's a good functional table there Neal. While it can be, a picnic table isn't supposed to be a show piece. And yes, treated pine. Make sure to wipe down any metal blades that you used, and give them a very light coating in oil (3 in 1 or even WD40 will do, just wipe it so it's not running when you turn the saw back on!). Treated wood is known for rusting out blades.
