My Memorial Day Project
So Memorial Day at noon I decided to buy some cedar on a whim and 11 hours later here is the result... And that was with time to play with the kids. My 4 year old was even "helping" me with the planer. Now for the chore... fill in screw holes (I despise mixing metal with wood but its a lot more time intensive, next time its all joinery), sand, and put a clear deck protectant on it.
This makes project #3 so far.

Re: My Memorial Day Project
That is pretty slick! The screws will make it easier to tighten up when weathered in a few years. Looks good!

Re: My Memorial Day Project
Good looking pair of seats. And, there's not a darned thing wrong with a few good screws.
For outdoor use, I dip the screws in CA and dribble a bit of CA on the heads. Seems to help with the rust.
