Woodsmith Redwood Garden Bench Plan
Any project that sits outdoors has to withstand the elements. This bench is built from redwood which resists decay. Instead of the usual yellow glue a plastic resin glue was used to weather as well as (and maybe even better than) the redwood. Rust-proof brass screws fasten down the seat slats and a few other pieces. The finish used on the bench is a shop-mixed combination of spar varnish and a tung oil sealer. This combination offers the penetrating protection of an oil and the slight sheen provided by a varnish. And with just a few modifications to the bench you can build a matching Redwood Armchair and put together a set of furniture for your garden.
We offer the Woodsmith Redwood Garden Bench plan as a downloadable PDF or a printed format that we ship to you.
The classic design of this English bench makes it a beautiful piece to accent your garden or deck. And this bench is as strong as it is attractive.
