    Never seen the support rails having dowels inserted and the explanations answered my questions. Amazing thought process and thanks! I love learning from the pros.

    By far the best design I've seen using cost effective materials. The attention to detail and consideration for what and who would be using it is impressive! That you for sharing this project and the sketchup file. I'm busy pulling the dimensions so I can build a few for friends and family.

    Struggled like others to find measurements, so sharing my new found sketchup knowledge.
    Assuming you found the link to "sketchup model" in his description, and have the free Sketchup.
    Use the orbit tool to move around (green/red arrow tool located middle right menu bar).
    Use the protractor tool to measure angles (under "tool" menu): 70deg on legs, 10deg back to bench.
    Use the tape measure tool to get lengths. His seem a little too large, most recommend a bench ht above ground of 15-17", and I'm measuring 18" on sketchup. Also most recommend a 5 deg pitch on bench seat.
    I can see a pile of cut lumber in sketchup, but never really found a cut list.
    Nice bench.

    If your familiar with sketchup you can use the dimension tool to get lengths,widths and thickness. Tedious I know, but doable.

  • @jraglob5924
    @jraglob5924 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have an unrelated question, I have the same Jet table saw and am looking for a pattern for a zero clearance insert. The thinness of the manufacture's and the small lips have made crating a solid one difficult for me. So I was wondering if you have a pattern? Thanks. By the way I love the bench and added it to a LONG list of projects.

    Really nice project. I'm trying to figure out the dimensions on sketch-up, but I'm having problems. I would like to build this bench for the neighborhood school bus stop. I don't have money to waste cutting the wood incorrectly. Could you please share with us the dimensions for this bench? It was awesome that you went to the trouble of making a sketch-up plan, and sharing it FOR FREE, but many of your viewers seem unable to use sketch-up. If you could post a simple drawing with measurements and angles to cut, that would be wonderful! At any rate, it was fun to watch your build video.

    • @trevorsworkshop
      @trevorsworkshop  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      everyone will have a different opinion, however, my sealant of choice for outdoor furniture is min wax Helmsman Spar Urethane. You will need to give it a coat or two every year to continue to protect it and no matter how hard you try, the sun will eventually win and it will become gray and faded. To protect the legs from soaking up water I coat the bottom of the legs with either titebond ii or epoxy before applying the urethane.
