PROJECT 6 Garden Bench by Chris Gleason Here’s a really versatile piece of furniture that would be at home in a variety of settings. When I started looking around our yard, I found at least three places where I wanted one. The construction techniques are simple and low-tech: no table saw is required to make this bench, as it relies on dimensioned lumber (1×4s and 2×4s) straight from your local home center. You won’t need a planer, either, because this kind of wood has already been surfaced at the mill.

Thus the shoulder cut for the top rail tenon is 1⁄2″ to match the topmost mortise cut. To give the mortises symmetry, the bottom mortise is placed 1⁄2″ from the bottom of the leg. However, the rail should not extend to the floor. To solve this, I offset the tenon on the bottom rail, omitting a shoulder cut in the process. Thus the lower rail begins 1⁄2″ above the floor. Key Measurement. The fit of the milled tenons is critical to success, so check them with a dial caliper. Test Fit. The leg assembly should be test fit to make sure all the bridle joints are correct.

As with the slats, sand all pieces through #220-grit with your ROS, then finish by hand-sanding with #600 grit. With all pieces machined, it is time for a trial assembly. Put together the leg assemblies and add the stretcher. Set the top in place. Check that all bridle joints are fully in place. Perform any last-minute tweaking as necessary. Glue and clamp the mortise-and-tenon joints on the legs and rails. FINISH AND FINAL ASSEMBLY Apply several coats of boiled linseed oil on all pieces, along with a top coat of wax.
