How to make a Snowboard Bench from an old board

If you've got a few old snowboards lying around and have always wondered what on earth to do with them, here's the answer's... make a Snowboard Bench to use when getting your gear on or off before or after a day's riding.

Here's how in a few simple steps with minimal fuss.

You will need:

• Old snowboard
• Drill and metal drill bits
• Large wooden timber
• 8 x long wood screws
• Sand paper
• Timber wax, paint or varnish

Step 1: Drill though the old binding threads

First thing to do is get a metal drill bit and drill out through the base of the board.  This is fairly easy as the base is usually a wood core. Use a drill bit size that matches your wood screws.

You might want to use rounded head wood screws (these were the only ones I had lying around).
