Looks good Keith,
I got a question for you, did you make the circular saw cut marks along the front and sides by hand?

Bently, the saw marks were left from the mill. I refused to plane the material smooth. I thought it would be cool to see them, so we just sanded lightly.

Thanks guys for the compliments

Fantastic bench, Keith. The carving is just beautiful!

The only thing I would like to see different is a couple more slats in the back.

Beautiful carving. Looks like a real comfy bench, but I agree with Charlie, I think a couple more slats for the back rest would make it more comfy. I hope you can do a follow up on how it weathers the elements. It’s a unique piece of art. I hope Mother Nature is gentle on it.

Interesting juxtaposition of refined and rough. I like the contrast between the smooth molded transitions, intricate carvings and the rough mill marks. Carvings are obviously what this bench is about though. It looks great. I wonder what the carvings will look like as it ages… Maybe just a wider bottom slat, it almost looks like something is missing with the little one.

Fantastic Kieth!! What a beauty!! Great teamwork!

One thing from me. I appreciate the color and look of weathered outdoor furniture, but with the wing pieces at the top and overall wearing of the piece in the weather, I think the bench will not last as long without a durable finish. Keep it under cover at least.

Beautiful….................

-- mtnwild (Jack), It's not what you see, it's how you see it.

Awesome!

-- Rob — I've cut it off twice and it's still too short!

Very cool, nicely done.
