Introduction: Garden Bench

Garden bench

Size 2m x 0,5m x 0,5m

Time: 3 days

Net cost: $15

Step 1: Step 1: Project

We want to make four identical benches and place them around a campfire.

We make the project: the radius to the bench must be so that we can put four benches close to each other and it will be a semi-circle around the fire.

Our sizes:

1. distance to the fire - 2 meters

2. the far edge of the bench - 2 meters

3. proximal edge of the bench - 1,5 meters

4. the width of the bench - 0,5 meters

5. the height of the bench - 0,5 meters

Step 2: Step 2: Measure Out, Saw Off, Process the Edges With a File

Sizes:

34 seat boards: 2cm x 5 cm x 50 cm

6 legs: 5 cm x 7 cm x 50 cm

2 connecting boards for seat (far edge): 4 cm x 4 cm x 100 cm

2 connecting boards for seat (a proximal edge): 4 cm x 4 cm x 80 cm

3 connecting boards from far edge to a proximal edge: 4 cm x 4 cm x 40 cm

Step 3: Step 3: Painting

Next day we paint our boards.

Step 4: Step 4: Frame for the Bench

Next day after painting we start the frame for the bench.

Legs connects with metal corners.

Step 5: Step 5: the Seat

The rays of our seat should be lined semicircle.

We lay out it easily with the rope tied to a stick.

Our rays we connect from the inside of the frame.

To turn over the bench and do not break the rays, we use paper scotch

Step 6: Step 6: Final Stage

To finalise our bench we connect side boards.

Step 7: Step 7: Invite Friends

When we finished our garden bench many friends came to see it.

Next parts of bench and fireplace are coming soon!
