@arosenberger87 9 ай бұрын
For the bird bath. If you were to dry brush some white or gray across the red pain it would probably help it look a bit more like red bricks. It looks flat because it is all one color. If you mix red and very very little white together, and brush that as well it could bring some highlights out as well.

Hi Keith, this video had Heather and myself a little teary eyed but it has given us a great idea. We lost our almost 21 year boy a few weeks ago and we are going to build and dedicate a bench to him. Thanks again for all the amazing content you put out. Best wishes from Cape Town, South Africa.

I saw some Bench ends at the Tip near the Airport a while back. I was given a bench by my Wife's Late Grandmother and turned that into a planter as the slates were gone and I had some Scaffold boards that I was going to use for a counter top on our Bar project, But end up making my own with 4X2 boards from S&M. I made a slate plaque for our Cat when he passed. As I am not that Artist in the way of drawing I made a temple and used my engraving tool to do the engraving, and that sits on top oh his grave in our garden.

The holes on the bench aren't for a bottom rail, they are for attaching braces to reduce shear forces. Slot-head screws for the plaque would look much better.

The stringer underneath the bench is often a threaded metal bar, This is tensioned to add rigidity to the bench, takes the 'racking' out. I have seen a piece of cheap stud bar fitted and then covered in a piece of matching timber split, slotted and refixed around the stud for a decorative finish.

I feel like the slab below is responsible for the "not in love with it" feeling? It looks kind of industrial or utilitarian, where the bird bath itself has a much more artistic look to it. Maybe think about a slightly fancier base for it, something like pebbles/river rocks?

Hello Keith, two inspiring projects, thank you. I’ve seen old iron gate ends in our local reclamation yard and day-dreamed about making a bench, so it was great to watch you actually do it and produce the lovely tribute to Dylan. Also the tip for securing the top of a concrete bird Bath. I’ve got my dear old gran’s bird bath and the top sits precariously on the top - I’ve added the job of fixing that to my DIY list! Thanks again for great, practical and informative videos.

Interesting that it was the timber in the coat stand that set you off, I have found Iroko to be a real problem allergy wise, I now have to wet sand our patio set before re-oiling to avoid dust allergies causing severe skin irritation.
