Outdoor Bench

I’ve been very busy working on this:

It’s made using Acacia which is supposed to be fairly durable.





Actually busy unpacking and assembling.
Bought for £100 including delivery.
Hopefully, the colour will mellow.

Rod, that looks very smart! :eusa-clap:

What finish did you use?

Did you stain it? Very nice colour.

Phil I bought it ready made, just needed a bit of assembling.
Lots of M&Ts and curved sections for £100 so not worth the effort I thought especially with my gammy foot.
