I was recently asked to help out with renovating the sound booth at
church. We were getting a new sound system and as part of that we needed to pull the soundbooth forward so it was no longer under the balcony, which interfered with good listening at the mixing board.
This was a big project involving a lot of people and I just snapped a
few still photos along the way. (Some of which are shown here)
My main contribution was the design and construction of the three
desks that were being fitted into the new and expanded booth.
When it was all complete we were left with two odd-shaped gaps on either side of the new booth and my final task was to bring back some of the curved pews which had been removed and cut them down and fit them into that odd shaped space.
So I set up my action camera to shoot a timelapse of the procedure. This was done in the evening, without supplemental lighting, and the church is a really big space, so the photos are a bit grainy. But I thought someone might find this interesting

Nice. I am trying to get my church to upgrade the sound system. It includes moving the sound booth from the balcony (worst place it could be) to about 3/4 back from the stage on the main floor. This project will also include cutting some pews.

I guess a jigsaw is a lot less quieter than a chainsaw.

There are other dedicated spots where pews have been shortened to make room for scooters and wheelchairs

I have a question, My church gave me an 11' pew and my wife wants me to use it for seating in a breakfast nook. What would be the best way to make the corner where the two pieces will be joined? My thought is to cut the bench at a 45 * angle where it would join the other piece. I like the idea of the jig saw but is there a better way to make the cuts accurate? Thanks! Chris

That's going to be tricky. I'd maybe try clamping a straight edge and then running a jig saw or small circular saw along it. That would increase the accuracy a lot, but you would probably still need to fine tune the joint with some hand planing. All I can say is that I wish you well. It sounds challenging!!! A lot depends on how curvy your Pew is.

I have a 10 foot pew that I want to cut to a smaller size. How would I join the two ends? I am a tool novice.

Our pews were only attached to their ends with screws which were hidden behind some trim. So I just had to pry up the trim, and then I could remove the screws, and then take the ends off the pew. I would look for something similar on yours.

I learned a new word: pew. Not sure how this relates to pewdepie, probably not. Interesting project. I often forget that church buildings are just that, buildings, with stuff in it, that is made with tools, like everything else.

I always wonder why religious persons are using some mesuring devices... they just have to pray for the good size and voilà! Mesure = base of science Hello from France!
