I have a table on the Tiki patio. It was a really nice cast aluminum decorative table, but I used it for a workbench for too long and thrashed the top LOL. I thought about covering it in some stone or ceramic tile but was concerned it would be too heavy. But I found some travertine vinyl tile mounted on some sort of thin board. It matches the Temple wall pretty well so I'm going for it. Started with a sheet of tempered hardboard (Masonite) with a 3 inch lip on the bottom to conceal the bottom of the table. I don't have a tablesaw some I rigged up a guide to cut bevel edges with a SkilSaw Started cutting tiles to size, beveling edges, gluing and weighting them down Top done. Now to start on the edges
