This is a quick timelapse build of a simple bench for our greenhouse. A fun little woodworking project, took under a day to make.

I thought, at the start, you're making a bench for a weed! Glad you found that one out. Good bench and I like the adjustable feet idea. Greenhouse floors can often end up quite wet, watering plants, watering the slabs to reduce the temp on hot days so keeping the timber above it is always good.

Love you carefully using a square to check everything, despite the "If it looks straight it is straight" sign staring on disapprovingly in the background! Edit: Also, slight audio desync at 9 minutes in. Only mentioning because I've been belatedly binging your old podcast and you said you sometimes marvel at what you can get away with without us noticing!

Hi Andy. Nicely done project , which will prove very useful when the growing season starts to kick in . You definitely prove what can be achieved in a relatively small workshop , and as you showed at the end keeping everything tidy is a must in your circumstances . I liked the stop block idea simple but very effective , so I shall be using your method next time I need lots of repetitive cuts on the miter saw . Thanks again and best wishes and kind regards to you both . 😀👍

My favourite sort of project Andy, but I'm not organised enough to plan it by computer, a few back of the envelope scribbles at best ! When you took it back to the workshop I thought I hope Mrs Mac is around that's gonna weigh a ton now, and bless her there she was ! Isn't it bonkers that it would have been much cheaper for you to "plank" it out in CLS than 18x69mm PSE - projects like this are getting expensive in machined timber, I now use a lot of 4.8m roofing battens - not planed but much cheaper and generally pretty decent for things like this ! Btw, when you started off holding the pot of Willow Herb, I thought "He's gonna chuck that in the. burn !" but you made me wait ! Finally, Kudos to you Andy for prioritising the house and garden over a big fancy workshop, I know you've chosen to have a studio, but that is a compromised space for making anything of any size, I'm the same and rely on assembling outside which is tricky with our unpredictable weather !

@GosforthHandyman 3 ай бұрын
Cheers - tell me about it! In hindsight I wish I'd just ripped my own slats from CLS. It wasn't until I got home and checked the receipt - bloody £30 a pack! Good tip on the roof battens too. 👍

A truly stunning piece of woodworking and something that I’m just about to embark upon, but can I just ask why, for a greenhouse, you didn’t use treated timber. Is it just a cost thing?
@GosforthHandyman
@GosforthHandyman Ай бұрын
Hi - it's never wet and the feet are off the floor with the little adjusters so not really needed. This will last longer than the greenhouse. 😁
@kilimanjaro5595
@kilimanjaro5595 3 ай бұрын
Andy, nice job, but, You don't want to fix the bench down. The normal procedure is you use that bench in the winter for storing plants against the harsh winter. You remove it in the summer so you can fill the green house with tomato, cucumber and pepper plants in pots or growbags. Also its not a good idea to grow directly in the soil in a green house unless your going to dig out the soil and replace it every year or two as growling the same crops year on year in there will degrade the soil and harbor disease. Good luck and enjoy your first year with your green house

Andy, for comparison do you have any idea how much the equivalent 'staging' would have been if you'd got it with the greenhouse? Off the top of my head I think £140 is relatively very good value for money.
@GosforthHandyman
@GosforthHandyman 3 ай бұрын
I think minimum £300 - even for some cheap junk from Amazon. So it's not bad value. 👍😁

Why did you move it into the green house, put on the lower spans, then move it back again? I assume you did that to get the level in-situ, but then later you put on adjustable legs?
@GosforthHandyman
@GosforthHandyman 3 ай бұрын
Good question! I just needed somewhere flat to do the initial assembly since the garage floor isn't flat (and not enough space to walk around it). I debated bringing the compressor down to the greenhouse to finish it off but in the end it was easier to bring the bench back. 👍👍

Top tip, you have two addorable gods in your life, I would recommend putting a fine mesh or chicken wire at the back of the bench to prevent the lil darlings knocking your shiz over & breaking the G-house glass. Trust me, I'm servant to 10 of the sadistic vandals 🙂

The bottom shelf is too high, with any plants shaded from high sunlight and lacking height to grow. Suggest lowering it to 6 inches off the ground. Roofing laths (Roger's Timber are cheap) are light and ideal for making a shelf, yours being too heavy to move easily. Barretline Wood Protective Treatment (Toolstation) is good at protecting from water. The bench should also be at the back of the greenhouse so that it doesn't block sunlight to plants at the rear. Hope the greenhouse won't be shaded by all those bushes. Can't see any drainage in the base for water removal. Good luck with plants.
