Outdoor Bench || Modern Outdoor Furniture || Plans Available …In this video, I build an outdoor bench with a modern flare for our back patio. We desperately needed some outdoor bench seating for all the guests that we never have. LOL. Sapele Mahogany works great for outdoor furniture because of it’s rot and weather resistant properties and that it doesn’t require a finish. However, I did decide to apply a finish on this outdoor bench and sprayed several coats of Total Boat’s Halcyon waterborne finish on this - 3 coats of Gloss and 2 coats of Satin. Plans are available using the link below if you are interested in building your own outdoor bench to add to your modern outdoor furniture or keep it inside in your mudroom! #outdoorbench #kjsawdust #outdoorfurniture

Beautiful bench. If you ever make another one, consider adding a slight curve to the top slats for comfort. This can be easily achieved with a string bow drawn onto an mdf template, then bandsawed and flush trimmed into each slat.

no sanding between coats. 1 hour between coats. complete finishing in 1 day... I had to go back and rewatch just for that. This is the gold standard.

The best I've ever used for outdoor furniture is waterlox and even that needs a heavy hand of upkeep with direct sun after a year or 2.

You always have nice designs, and good construction explanations, and no silly arty dolly shots eith the camera or dumb music, which somehow despite Casey Neistat using it seven years sgo, they still think it's relevent. Interesting cost between hard and softwoods is narrowing. It's all expensive but hardwood compsrstively less.

Thanks so much! I greatly appreciate the feedback. Sometimes I wish my footage was more cinematic and then I realize that's a lot more work for little reward 😜. Thanks for your support!

1 minute into your video and i subscribed. I love the fact you gave exact pricing on the wood. Most say they got it for free or "found it ".

Great video! Do you think this project could withstand the Arizona sun, heat, dry, switch to monsoon rain, humidity . . . rinse, repeat?

I think so! Sapele mahogany is rot resistant, so shouldn't be any issue there. However, with the intense weather, any finish applied will most likely need to be refreshed every 1-2 years.
