    big respect for your work. The design with the round pages is beautiful. It brings the guests into a circle of friendship even though the table is straight. the benches are broken. that's so clever. I've never seen it like that before. your craftsmanship is to be admired. It was nice to eat with you at your table. BRAVO ELEN 🍀💪👍

    It is so thoughtful to make the ends of the table curved so people can see each other and not be excluded! And the shorter benches instead of really long, annoying benches is so smart!! A fabulously thought out design and great execution. And you always explain things so clearly in your videos. Fantastic and enjoyable as always! I love the 10 Makers series so much! Such a lovely bunch of makers and people!

    Great ideas for improving the picnic-table-bench-combination!
    The next level would be a build where the structure could eventually be unassembeld and transported in pieces for easier moving around and stowing it away if it is not needed in the cold seasons. I've built such a table, but not in combination with the bench (or seats), a little bit smaller, and- of course--not with THAT expert design;-)
    Hmm... I go on figuring and and will come back on you when I've suceeded...
