Reclaimed wood - bench project

Well i finally had time to complete my Bench that i started (minus one more coat of oil i think)

Below are some pictures. And also some of my leanings.

  1. The precision required to execute a simple design i found to be harder then i thought
  2. Keeping the natural beauty of the wood seemed to add a complexity that i didn’t expect
  3. i need to learn how to make more strategic cuts
  4. I love Liquid Nail
  5. When you do not use a joiner in combo with a planer you need to accept and embrace the dimensional variances.
  6. Move my planer to the garage, buy a joiner.
