    It is your right to be proud. Very appealing craft. Though as you have a dog, I would screw the final legs upside down for stability reasons. For protection of that precious carpet from coffee stains.

    Forget the building skills and tools I need - which will require me to ‘phone a friend’ for help - what wood can I use to apply a walnut looking finish and end up with a reasonably priced bench? Any idea of weight capacity of bench?

    • @AndrewSzeto
      @AndrewSzeto  Рік тому

      oooh so there are definitely stains available at your local hardware store. you can apply after assembly. capacity on the bench is probably 3-400 lbs (I weight close to 200 lbs and it holds me pretty easily).

    • @AndrewSzeto
      @AndrewSzeto  Рік тому +1

      ooooh that's a good question, so the slats ended up being 1" and the spacing in between was 0.6". Not exactly the spacing on a regular bench, but it was what I could do with the sizing of the center slats. Really appreciate the watch Michael!

    Just curous, why the subtitles? If I may be honest, for me, they are a bit distracting... I always start reading them, but actually don't need to in order to hear what you say. The audio of your vids is pretty good, don't know if that's your concern?
