    When you asked at the beginning of the video what we viewers would do with this bench in that dilapidated condition, the first thing that entered my mind was “firewood.” But, you miraculously brought that piece back and made it better than it ever was.

    Occasionally, I’ve tried fixing old stuff by smashing glue into the cracks and clamping it back together with mixed results. I was mere minutes in when you started filling the cracks with reclaimed wood. It’s not the first time someone on UA-cam has demonstrated to me the line between ability and talent, but I’m humbled every time. I do suspect the resurrection took more time than the original build. Well done.

    An impressive restoration project, well made and well presented.
    This piece had emotional significance to you, so rescueing was in order. A new bench, made from more suitable wood, and with tighter joints, could have been produced in less time, but that wasn't the point.
    Some people disapprove of visible dowel reinforcement, but I like it. Good call, and certainly heaps better than the nails it started out with :)
    A minor thing about the new seat: Glueing won't work, as the boards will move under varying humidity and temperatures. I realize you also screwed it on, and that will work, although you'll probably need to tighten the screws regularly. Also, I would have slightly spaced the boards, to reduce pooling of rainwater, and to ensure they have space to expand and contract with the weather.
    All in all a superb rescue, and a satisfying video to watch.

      Your comment line by line was valuable and readable for me and I thank you for it and I would like to answer it completely. I am honored that you enjoyed this bench restoration. Of course, making new furniture is much easier and even cheaper than restoration, but according to you, our goal was something else that I followed. Personally, I use wooden pins instead of nails in my renovations and carpentry because they are both stronger and more beautiful, provided that you use a special and high-density wood. I completely agree with you about the expansion and contraction. If a bench is going to be placed in the open environment, there should be some space between the boards for the expansion and contraction of the seat.

      @@CreativeIdeasMaker Thank you for the encourageing response. I wonder: have you looked into tension pegging?
      the practice of slightly offsetting the hole in your tenon, so the peg forces the joint tight. It was mostly used in house carpentry, but I have seen it used in furniture making as well. Very tight joints, that don't even need glue.
      You drill the hole through the mortise in your female piece, about where you would drill through an assembled joint, but without the tenon inserted. then insert the tenon, and make a centering point in the tongue of the tenon, a little further toward the joint. Disassemble, drill the hole, and pound in a peg. The peg will force the joint tight.

    A bit tangential, but this fix reminds me of this Wait Dilemma, where for interstellar travel spanning centuries or millennia, depending on the technology available, sometimes its better to wait a bit because as technology progresses, the latter ships would arrive earlier than the earlier ships. If technology has plateaued enough, then it may be worth it to start aiming for the stars. This guy made a bench at 13 years old, and in the meantime gained and grew in skill, and then came back to that old bench to do it better the second time. Impressive
