I installed a bench I made at the Village Hall today. see attached vid.

Made from Oak felled on a nearby estate, would have gone for firewood, I hope this is a better use! Cheers, Pup.

 

Love that, very clever use of the shape:thumbup:

Like that a lot pup, name suits it, it's the sort of thing David Nash would make and put a long winded explanation of in fitting organic form complimenting its surroundings and put a big££££On it. Bet the client was caped about it

That's some really nice colour for ash. Doesn't seem to have lost much from the trimming up (and saved your chain a bit )

Thank you Alec, you're comment is very kind. I'm going to try and post a side on picture, having a little trouble with the tech at the minute.

Thank you Wisewood, great feedback. I was a bit shy to post for fear of being shot down, your comment is appreciated.

Gray Git - thank you. David Nash! Now there's a compliment.

No need to be shy of posting something as good as that, truly excellent, a great design.

Also very interested in the mechanics of it, was it screwed, bolted etc.

Alec, attached is side on pic. I hope.

Anyhow, the leg is notched to support the seat, then screwed with 150mm timber framing screws, and forms the support for the next piece up on the backrest. Cheers, Alun.

Thanks Alun, that's very clear. I shall know what to do with the next suitably non-straight bit of oak that shows up:001_smile:
