DIY Plans for an Outdoor Bar Table with a 27.5 in. square Tabletop
Build your own solid and stylish outdoor bar leaner with a built-in footrest. You can comfortably lean against it with one foot on the footrest, or use bar stools (not included).
This is a very sturdy bar leaner made from 2×6 (50×150 mm) treated lumber.
The tabletop measures 27½″ (700 mm) square and stands 40″ (1016 mm) high. The footrest is 7″ (178 mm) off the ground, making it a very comfortable bar table to lean on or stand at.
It can be easily dismantled and reassembled. The unit separates into three main parts: the tabletop, the column, and the base — handy for storage or transport.
