Nice project there.

Pallet wood not a rough wood ? Very hard to smooth it out.

Becarefull with the table slide that use in the flat way. It cannot hold the weight even actual spec is higher. It have to be install in side way.

What the final completed project looks like.  Pretty happy with the final output.

How the project actually started, from the very beginning working backwards ....

... managed to source pinewood planks (16' feet) from a dealer.  Got him to cut to 7' in length.

The job of constructing the barndoors was beyond what I had in skills and tools, hence got a local workshop to provide the labour.  Glad I did as it took them 1 day to complete the job.

Got them to sand it down to provide a smooth surface and remove possible wood splinters

Treated the wood myself using stains as well as applying a layer using wax paste (to provide a layer of protection from the splash of water).  The right side - the darker side is the treated section.

Treated and just waiting to be mounted on the railings ....

Is the shop provide sanding service for existing dining table?

I am sure there.  Some can come over to do the sanding at your place (they bring their equipment along), but not sure if you want dust around.  Otherwise, you might have to transport your table to and fro to the workshop.

Also depends on where the location of your house ; best to find a workshop near your place of residence.

can i know where is the shop?

Those that I know are located along Jalan Sungai Buloh - same stretch as all the nurseries.  100 metres before the Kota Damansara traffic lights (if coming from Subang Skypark Airport)

Nice builds @bigred. Recently bought the sliding barn door hardware on AliExpress. Gonna start working on the door this weekend.

Mind if I share some of my DIY work on your thread?

That's impressive.  This was done at your frontyard?  What type wood did you use?  It looks pretty thick ... at least an inch in thickness.

Post a final pic of the table when it is completed.

Did you have a welder or did you get someone to do the welding of the table joints?

Thanks! Yeah it was done in my porch. Just had a renovation so it’s in a mess.

Wood is called Melunak, solid wood. Bought it from a factory in Ampang. It’s 2 inches thick.

nice edge to joint. did you get the factory to surface them too?

Thanks! It comes planed, but I had to do quite a bit of sanding to get it all evened out.

cool, of coz. cos you glued the joints right? gotta be really smooth on both sides to have maximum contacts.

6” x 2” Melunak wood (Total size around 7’ x 3’) - RM336
means you used how many 7feet planks to make 7x3 table? exactly 6 planks? rm8/feet is reasonable for 2x6 size .. i assume its hard woods as i have not much info on that kind of wood.
