Cherry and Walnut Bench

Project by raf posted 153 days ago 451 views 1 time favorited 9 comments Add to Favorites Watch

This is the first piece of furniture that was worthy of making its way into the house. Also the first one that I’ve started with rough lumber and did all the milling myself…much nicer to do it this way.

It’s made of cherry and walnut and finished with three coats of Minwax tung oil.

Mill your own and you know the dimensions, what you want is what you get and not what they want to sell you,, and you can select your species, too.,
