what can you make from deck rails?
we replaced the rails on our deck a couple weeks ago and i was wondering what to do with the rails as i just can't rhow everything away w/o recycling it.
Soooooo i made a table. It not the most level thing but it's pretty sturdy and it only cost me the deck screws, electricity and time to produce it.
the only thing i need to do is buy some trim and clean up the edges and sand it down and stain it again.

Did you bother to pre-drill for the screws? Looks like you f'ed up a few of the corners.
And why did you replace the ballusters? They looked like they were in good condition.

the rails were dried out and most were becoming very loose and dangerous to have our 3 year old neice near them.
