Hello, friends, it's Evgeniy Budilov here. I recently came across a few old planks, and I decided to transform them into a comfortable outdoor bench. In this video, I strive to demonstrate the entire process of crafting a garden bench as comprehensively as possible.
In this detailed DIY tutorial, I'll walk you through each step of creating a sturdy and stylish outdoor bench from reclaimed wood. From preparing and planing the old planks to precise cutting and assembly, every step is covered to ensure you can follow along and build your own beautiful garden bench.
We start by using a jointer to smooth and straighten the planks, ensuring they are ready for further processing. Next, I demonstrate the proper techniques for marking and cutting the wood to the correct dimensions using a miter saw. This is followed by refining the edges with a handheld router to give the bench a polished look.
Sanding is a crucial step to achieve a smooth finish, and I use an orbital sander for this purpose. After sanding, I apply a protective wood preservative to shield the bench from the elements, extending its lifespan. The assembly process involves fastening the legs with wood screws, ensuring the bench is sturdy and stable. The final steps include attaching the seat to the legs and installing the backrest, making sure everything is securely fastened.
By the end of this video, you'll see the completed bench, ready to be placed in your garden or outdoor space. Whether you're an experienced woodworker or a DIY enthusiast, this project is both rewarding and functional.In this detailed DIY tutorial, I'll walk you through each step of creating a sturdy and stylish outdoor bench from reclaimed wood.
