: Well, I'm almost ready to order my first S&G kayak kit (Waters Dancing Solace
: 16XL). I've made room in the garage and am starting to think about a table
: to work on. I may have access to three 6'x2.5' folding tables. If not, I
: will likely build my own out of plywood and 2x4s. I'm leaning more towards
: building my own actually, just so I don't have to worry about messing up
: someone elses tables. So, what size table would be appropriate for a 16'
: multichine S&G kayak? If I buy one sheet of cheap 8'x4' plywood I could
: cut it lengthwise and have a pair of 2'x8' tables. Is that wide enough, or
: wouyld I need to just build two 8'x4' plywood tables? Do you guys have any
: ideas about this, or can you point me to any websites with some details?
: Thanks in advance,
: Ken
Ken - I built my plywood table out of 2x4s and a single sheet of 1/2 OSB plywood cut down the middle to give me a 2x16 foot table. I started out with 4-8ft 2x4s... put two attached with a buttjoint style scrap piece of 2x4 on each side of the table and then chopped up small chunks of 2x4 to go across from each 16ft 2x4 for support...then simply cut my 4x8 piece of plywood down to 2x8 pieces and nailed them directly onto the top of my 2x4 frame. Then I set the whole thing up on two saw horses.
