  • I've got one of these tables and the top is a bit warped and knackered.

    Would like to replace the top with something slightly larger (say 550x700) and not slatted so I can use it for pizza oven/portable barbecue. It will certainly be outside for all the summer and possibly a fair bit of the rest of the year.

    A piece of varnished marine ply seems the obvious (I'm guessing 12mm) but it is expensive and only seems to be available in large sheets (or pre-cut but almost the same price as a large sheet).

    Is there anywhere selling smaller bits of marine ply at a more reasonable price with either cheap delivery or around Tottenham that anyone can point me in the direction of?

    Or, is this kind of stuff actually suitable for outdoor use if varnished as it suggests or will that just end up being need to replaced all the time

    Lol. No. 2015 called and it wants it's prices back :)

    How sturdy is it? If it's for a pizza oven I wonder if a tile or peice of marble would be better? In which case maybe get creative on FBM / ebay. I can imagine this time of year there must be loads of reno work in north LDN.

    Otherwise go to the Green Lanes super store on a Sunday afternoon and look through the offcuts. If there's nothing there get a bit cut to size.
