This build is of a memorial bench, known in the US as an English Garden Bench. I love making things out of wood and I love my family so this was a bit of a passion project.
In this video I will show you how I build a garden bench for my parents in law. I think it will be perfect for a place in their garden that I have in mind.
For me, woodworking, whilst there are frustrations, can be the most relaxing form of escapism. If you then add to that the pleasure of seeing a piece coming alive and witness the pleasure on the faces of the recipient, I don't think it can be beaten as a hobby.
My woodworking workshop is based in the UK but location seems to be irrelevant in this community. Wherever we live, small workshop or large, we all have the love of this craft in common.
I plan to share on RU-vid, in much the same way as I learn from it. So with that in mind, if you have any questions then don't hesitate to ask in the comments section. There is no such thing as a silly question.

Back to woodworking. It's like coming home. Having retired a while ago I found that I missed working (strange but true).
But in order to start (again) I needed a workshop and tools that I had sold or dumped (to make space in my small home shed).
The new channel will consist of woodworking builds, tool reviews, woodworking techniques, workshop banter and more. Sometimes I will be able to teach beginner woodworkers or remind the more experienced and sometimes I will be asking for advice. Working with wood tends to be a passion rather than just a job, a passion (if you are watching this) we all share. So hopefully this channel will become a community because I'm not looking for subscribers, I'm looking for friends of the channel.
