- Come along as I build a sturdy and extremely comfortable outdoor bench seat with back. This DIY woodworking project calls for just four 2x8's and a box of screws. I'll show you how I knocked this building project out in just a few hours working by myself. #DIYGardenBench #DIYOutdoorBench #2x8OutdoorBench #PatioBench #DIYBench #diyoutdoorbenchseatwithback
It's simple to build with just a few basic tools. It is a kid friendly woodworking project and would be great to do with a child or grandchild. It's a fun Patio/ garden bench build project.
My total cost was $57 (12/27/20)
Here's a link to the plans that I used to build the bench.

![$30 Outdoor Bench with Back [Only 3 Tools and 30mins]](/img/n.gif)
I'm going to build one this week. This looks to be an excellent design.
Update: I built this bench. Great bench. A suggestion for future builds...don't use this cut list. Instead, from each 8 footer cut one 48" board. You'll be left with four cut offs. Use two of these for the 38" long legs. From another cut out the two shorter legs. This will leave you with one cut off about 48" long. I cut this piece in half and mounted each piece under the legs like skis. This keeps the bench from sinking in the ground, keeps the legs drier for longevity (they're sacrificial and can be replaced as needed), and lastly, allows you to easily drag/move the bench for mowing/trimming around.
It is. Everyone who sits on it comments how comfortable it is to sit on. Good luck on your project and thanks for watching.
Very helpful video with details for beginners. I'm a girl starting my first basic projects and still learning to use power tools, you're one of the first guys with a video that I think I can actually follow. Thanks!
Thanks for watching and good luck with your project...
Thanks for this nice project - cheers!!
Thank you for watching... Best of luck to you!
Super!👍.
Thank you! Cheers!
Лучшее видео. Спасибо
A couole more 2x8's you could cut the banch in half to make chairs.
30 deg is the original Leopold bench and makes an isosceles triangle. Rogue Engineer over engineered this bench with all the various angles. Cut everything at 30Deg and it's much simpler. Plus using pressure treated lumber is toxic. Douglas fir will last for many years especially when sealed.
Thanks for watching and commenting
Built 3 of these via rogue engineers youtube videos. Super simple and super comfortable.
We really like ours. Thanks for the comment.
Made one about a month ago and love it. Great vid!
Thanks
Wow! Thanks Todd, I built a patio and picnic table last summer. THIS is definitely my next piece, your a cool dude. I'm out in the country, probably near what you might call "up north" . I've been helping at one of the campgrounds and they love stuff like this....AND a heater review?!?! Like your style.
Thanks for watching and thank you for the kind words...
Nice work. Built one myself and had the same issue with the uneven backrest rising above the supports. Then I realized the two seat boards needed to be cut a bit shorter than the backrest as they don’t carry the entire 48 inches like the backrest boards do in order to flush them to the notched out backing. Rather than belt sanding I ended up unscrewing the seat, making my cuts, and then assemble the back. But hey, you found a great solution and it looks super!
Great input. Thanks for watching...
Good build. You can save a little coin by using non treated lumber and fire curing it with a roofing torch. I’ll be making a few of these shortly and will be using non treated lumber, jointing the edges, touting the corners and likely using dowels or pocket screws to hide the hardware.
Thanks for watching... I've seen the fire torch used on exterior wood siding. Good luck on your project...
Be very careful of your cord getting caught by the blade guard lever as shown at 5:20, I've seen that cause someone to have kickback and the cord traps the guard and he ran the blade across his forearm- 12 weeks in therapy following reconstruction.
Great tip, thanks
great video amazing how much the lumber prices have increased 10.88 when you made this now in April 2021 they are 15.27 a board came out great
I know, I've had to put some larger projects on the back burner for a while because of it. Thanks for watching and good luck on your bench...
great video. Thanks. But how did you know where to attach the two leg pieces together? what's the measurement of where they cross at the bottom?
Just lay the two end pieces out on your bench (or the floor) and use a straight edge along the bottom to simulate the floor under the feet, then line it all up. Both feet should set flat on the floor. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching...
That little empty triangle made by the legs.... The front side will measure about 5-3/8" and rear side about 6-1/16". Don't worry about these lengths being exact. You're building a garden bench not stain grade fine furniture. Just make sure the bottom of the legs are in plane with one another and that both sides are mirror images of one another.
Great job, how can I add armrests to it?
You could probably bolt a 2x6 on the end and top that with a 1x or 2x on the flat... thanks for watching and good luck.
Where’s the cushion
You could add one for sure. This one is sitting out side of our shooting range building. Everyone is very surprised how comfortable it is.
