There is such an idea, to make a barbecue table from a cable reel. Such coils have a reliable design, from which you can make many different useful things. So if you find, drag yourself into the garage, it will come in handy for anyone.
An ordinary table can also be made out of a coil, in principle, and nothing needs to be done, it is already ready, just put in order. And since the coil has a hollow middle, then for a barbecue this is an ideal option, I don’t put a vase with flowers there, though ....
In short, bring the coil in order, well, there to grind, replace sundries.
Then tighten the threads on the pins carefully so that your original table does not accidentally fall apart (there should be four of them). Calculate and cut out the hole where the barbecue will be, I don’t know whether it’s yours, store-bought or home-made, the main thing is that it matches the hole.
Insert and see what happened.
That's all, it remains to bring beauty. Just paint, it will not be right. Here in the photo you can see that varnished. If the coil is not in very good condition, then a lot of varnish is needed, several layers are for sure. They didn’t make it for furniture, and the slats are usually poorly fitted, so you have to tinker to fill all the cracks.
When the varnish dries, and this is ten days or more, set up a barbecue. Here you can see what was installed on the foil so that the boards do not burn out, although you can use special silicone material for the stove or fireplace, such is sold in household goods. At the same time, such a gasket will serve as a sealant.
Well, now you can collect guests. Surely after your picnic, a real hunt for reels from the cable will begin.
