Tile-Top Table

How do you build a sturdy outdoor table without any tricky mortise and tenon joinery? Using pocket screws makes it quick and easy.

Ceramic tile is normally meant for floors, but it’s also perfect for a small, outdoor table. The tile will take whatever the elements (or a drinking glass) can dish out. You may be surprised by how quickly this table comes together. The secret is that it’s made up of a half-dozen frames put together with pocket screws.
