Simple and clean looking build. I like it. Only thing I would change is you might want to fill those screw holes as water will sit in them. Or use Camo screws next time that you drive in from the side using their jig, where water is less likely to go. Makes for a screw-less top appearance as well.
Slick work! Enjoy the whole process...time-lapsing where you should, great camera angles, crisp and sharp video resolution and your voice -over work is calming. Cheers, Scott
Do yourself a favor and purchase a 4" version of the Torx bit you are using, will save a lot of hassle where the bit constantly gets stuck in the screw after driving. I did this and didn't realize how much time I was wasting each day by pulling out that bit each time. Love the project, it looks great!
applying rubberized self-adhering window flashing tape to the top and back face of the bench supports will halt any water penetration behind and under the seat and backrest boards . . .
I'm really impressed with the amounts of project that have come out lately. They are all really great to watch. thank you so much, you have really developed your own style. I think this channel should really grow a lot in the future. keep up the inspiring work !
Wow aure! Thanks so much for the kind words. They are truly appreciated and so grateful for people like you that can see how much hard work I put into my video. Every day I try to learn something new to be better at my craft and hopefully it help others learn at the same time.

Plans please Scott. I try and make my projects from reclaimed timber and the sizes aren't always the same. So it helps make adjustments or come to the decision that the reclaimed won't work. Nice video
Is there any way you can build a safe and elegant fire pit. I love how you built the sofa and how you explained durability and protection. I have subscribed since you offer free plans. AMAZING
The doggo is supervising again lol. I love this would love to build this. Lumber prices still have to mortgage your house to build your shed lol When you said fire 🔥 wondered if you were headed to the sho shugi ban. BYOT bring your own torch!! lol yep cattywhampus
Kona is always so handy it seems like and always around. I would never leave my side unless he wants to eat haha! Thanks so much for watching as always.
Just got done building this came out pretty nice, however i'm noticing that theirs no real structural support side to which makes me worry one day it'll collapse to the left or right, i'm considering adding some 2x4 or 4x4 between the legs for added support if it starts to feel wobbly down the road, hopefully the back and seat will remain stable, i'm missing 6-7 of the 2" grk's because apparently home depot sold me a box missing a few lol I didn't do the fire coating for the legs tho i did a dark deck sealant as i didnt have a torch and given the price of those 4x4s didnt want to risk it. I went a bit cheap on the back/seat cause i bought cheap 1x4's and then i did the oil like you did but still didn't feel great about it's weather safeness as the couch isn't covered so i put a layer of polyurethane over it after a few days of the oil curing.
I’m thinking of adding storage option with a project like this, so that I can put this on my front patio and double as a place for Amazon or Temu delivery. Thoughts?
What was the ratio you used for the mineral spirit to boiled lin seed oil? It appeared like a 1:1 ratio but I thought I’d ask to be sure. I made an outdoor dip bar for my patio with same burn technique but did not add mineral spirit to my boiled Lin seed oil. Needless to say it was a pain in the but applying it because it was so thick! Thanks for that tip on adding the mineral spirit, thats a great tip for the next project!
Great idea, unfortunately the cushions slide everywhere and fly off during windy days. To fix this issue was a simple wide strip of Velcro tape, tacked the strips to the wood and sewed the others to each cushion seat and pillow-back, worked like a charm! Great project and extremely comfortable (especially if you purchase the fluffier filled cushions from California Backyard). Unzip, power-wash, and they are like new for 3 seasons so far. Great idea and budget friendly for larger family gatherings. 🥰🥰
These are a really nice looking design with a great finish on the cedar and the legs, but I would like to figure out how to put arm rests on the ends. Any ideas?
Enjoyed watching the build, and looking to build the exact plan. If you've provided the plan, how can I get a copy. At a minimum, can you provide the measurements for the legs and measurements for each cut. Much appreciated.
Sir agreat job . I was interested in building this project for me dining river table. The video stated free plains I was unable to download them any sugations on how to get them
Really good details on this bench build. I am about to use "Premium Pine" boards, that is 0.75 inches x 3.5 inches from the Home Depot store to create a bench that is 36 x26 inches. Do you think it can support the weight of 2 people ? ( 360 pounds ? ). Trying to put this bench on a boat, so the total weight of the bench is of concern.
Slick design. Loved the details.. per the plan, it says 16’ 4*4 (and I see in the video and the design that their ain’t wood left) but the total length for the legs don’t add up.. they are only 102” while 16’ would be 192”. what am I missing?
Well done. Well built and as with everything you build, will last as long as you own them. Did a similar project years ago. Can’t wait for the fire pit video 😜
Lol, Cattywompus is fun to say. I'm amazed at how often you do projects we are doing on our house build. Great video Brent. Unfortunately these cushions are almost the same price as a whole economy set, so I opted for the set instead of making it.
Bench turned out nice. But just so you know, pocket holes are NOT a professional way to joint 2 piece together as you said @3:23 They get the job done and great for DIY'ers or Weekend Warriors, but there are several better and stronger ways to joint 2 piece together... Mortise and tenon, half lap just to mention a couple. Also, you should have used Titebond 3 or some other waterproof glue along with the screws.
Totally agree. I built a door to my raised bed garden using pocket holes for the boards on the inside. They ripped out and warped after a year. I definitely will be rebuilding them with better joinery next time
great instructional video... one note that I would have done at the end (maybe you had your reasons to NOT do this): add heavy-duty strips of velcro to the bottom of those cushions and the top of the seat itself so the cushions don't move anywhere near as much just a thought!
Great thought Ian! I’ll have to keep that one in mind. Don’t know how much we will have the cushions on vs leaving it bear. But if we have the cushions on more often than not then that’s the Way to go. Thanks for the support

Who would not like the plans. I have gotten hooked on your videos.
Caddywhampuss... love it we use that frequently when working on jobs.
Great as always. Great you warn about the lindseed oil on rag.
Right?! Actually read the directions and saw that one. Always good to read the directions ha ha. Thanks so much for the continued support Sebastien.
Perfectly done I enjoy wood work because my dad was a carpenter it’s always a pleasure for me to learn new things
Great job. The sofa looks amazing!
Great to hear bud! Thanks so much for watching and keep up the great work on your channel.
Cool project. The cushions look super comfy. Yes please for plans.
I have seen hundreds of builds like this but this is the style I want for my first outdoor project.
Would love the plans for this, a perfect addition to my back patio and fire pit...
With every project, you make sure all the details are covered. Beautiful benches!!
First time watching your videos,
Amazing,

These are really nice looking! Love that you have the plans for free and don't even need an email list signup to get them as well.
I have to say you did an absolutely beautiful job. I am definitely going on Esty for the plan 👍🏿
That linseed oil mix is gorgeous
Great idea to add plans!
Absolutely fierce. Lovely ✨
Would love to see plans!
Great to hear Scott and thanks so much for the support. I think this would be a fun project to do plans for as well so I’ll keep you posted.

Once again…stunning with such clear build instructions…loved the red cushion too❤️🙋🏻♀️🇬🇧💕jane
Plans would be nice I’m interested. Thanks for sharing

If your not joking about them being free 😁
Such an amazing word
Thank you
Thanks for your video. Because this video is an important lesson for me.
Wonderful add to my backyard patio. Would very much appreciate plans for this.

Looks great, id love the plans please :)
Man it looks great. Good job
Absolutely presentation keep it up
That came out simply amazing! If I saw that at a friends house, I’d assume they paid a fortune! Beautiful work!
Very nice work. Lovely.
Awesome video. Keep up the great work💪🏼
I am interested in the plans to make this outdoor bench set.
Love to See the Plans too
I do use that term caddywopus . Thanks for sharing
thanks a lot for you efforts , plans would be appreciated
So I got a question.... First off love the design. Can I shorten the length of the sofa. to make it a garden bench?
LOVE THIS!!
Love it... Love it, just love it!! ♥️

Another great tutorial! I have confidence that I could actually build this. Plans please! Thanks. 🤗
Yes I would like plans for this project
I would like to get plans for the bench that you built.
I swear he's like the Bob Ross of wood-working.
Pretty pretty well done. Did you not think of adding arms on the sides? If you did, is there a reason you didn't go for them?
Good job bro, i love it.
Looks really good.. Would love to see some plans. Thank you

Leg assemblies look nice. I’d worry about too much surface area on the ground during Seattle rains. Very nice design though
Nice Build! Kudos from Federal Way!
Love these
Would love to use plans. Thanks for sharing!
Good job man! Love all the diy stuff and how great it turns out. It’s fun building your own stuff and the more you do it the better it comes out.
Yes to plans
Great design! Well done.
Aww man... Your Home Depot link for the cedar boards doesn't work. 😔 Love the sofas! 🤩
Beautiful contrast! Great work
Hello did you ever make plans for these benches? I would love to have a copy.
Thanks,

Just beautiful, Brent! Enjoy!

PLANS, PLEASE!?!? That would be marvelously fantastic.
Just what I had in mind but did not know the angles that I needed
Bro please upload degree of cutting measurements and jointing drawing chart
Lol, Cattywompus is fun to say. I'm amazed at how often you do projects we are doing on our house build. Great video Brent. Unfortunately these cushions are almost the same price as a whole economy set, so I opted for the set instead of making it.

Great job would love the plans
I love it. Can i see your plans?
great job! Look nice !
Wow, it looks amazing… I should try to do it myself 😊
Your videos are like 10mins but in my mind it's like 2 minutes. Time flys when I watch you videos. Lol
Looks great! I might have missed it on this video but I don't think you said "So keep that in mind." a single time. :-)
I would love plans for this project.
great instructional video... one note that I would have done at the end (maybe you had your reasons to NOT do this): add heavy-duty strips of velcro to the bottom of those cushions and the top of the seat itself so the cushions don't move anywhere near as much
just a thought!
Great thought Ian! I’ll have to keep that one in mind. Don’t know how much we will have the cushions on vs leaving it bear. But if we have the cushions on more often than not then that’s the Way to go. Thanks for the support
@@BYOTools yeah, definitely makes sense to not add those if you ever have the tops bare... I figured you had to have had a reason hahaha!
Those are nice!!!
