Simple Outdoor Bench and Table

Submitted by Rose988 on Sun, 06/08/2014 - 19:50

This was my first project, my wife and I started with the table, which took us a little while but ended up being pretty simple. Unfortunately we do not own a saw but discovered that Lowes will happily cut the wood for you. After we completed the table we started working on the bench, which is where we ran into a slight problem. Some how our frame boards ended up being two short, so as a fix we did not put any spaces in between the seat slats and used four 7 inch pieces we had left over to complete the full frame. We also altered the plan to make our bench a little longer than the original its 57 inches instead of 52.
