I’m looking for about a 2′ x 3′ piece medium weight sheet material that could serve as a table top and be weather resistant. As it needs to withstand direct rain I don’t think anything made of wood would hold up, but I don’t know what else I could use that would still be cheap as say plywood.
Any suggestion for something that’s inexpensive and would be weather resistant? I usually only set lightweight tools and parts on this table so it doesn’t need to be heavy duty at all.
Thanks!

One thin Trex board (used for composite decking) might work.
Thanks, I'll search around for some Trex and see what comes up.
Build it like a picnic table. These methods and materials have been successful for many years. Effective, durable, and long lasting.
Look into polyethylene sheets (HDPE). It’s commonly used for cockpit tables on boats and in marine environments so should be plenty weather resistant.
