Those are some tables . What a great look. I’m glad I don’t have to move them.

Great benches! You don’t think they’re too delicate do you? lol.

-- John @ Myrtle Beach

Great looking benches. I really like the large support sections for the slabs. It makes them really
well matched. What size are the massive leg sections. Thanks..

-- Phil

Thanks for the comments . Given where these pieces are going they are scaled appropriately . There is still a fair slice of the population out there that can partake in the best that mother nature has to offer—-

Stinking awesome Rob!

Phil , the log sections are twelve inches wide on two of the benches , and ten on the other -

Rob, these are beautiful benches. I love the sheer size of these. And the owners are certainly not going to have to worry about these benches disappearing in the middle of the night.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

That is fantastic and very likely to be stolen at that weight!

-- The wood slayer - Yes dear I did plan to make more kindling out of that wood I have been drying for the last year - honest!

Fantastic job. Love the design! Strong and sturdy.

Keep it up.

Scrappy

-- Scrap Wood's the best...the projects are smaller, and so is the mess!

nice benches ,

do you need to pour a footer ,
to keep them from settling into the ground (LOL) ?

And to think that I thought that Brass inlay was wood putty…..Damn ! Nice benches : )

-- You know you're getting old when you know the difference between you're (you are) and your (belonging to you) AND how to use them in a sentence .

Forklift time, great looking work!

-- Ken, "Everyday above ground is a good day!"

Very Cool! I love the rustic, massive look of them but yet they have an elegant overtone. Nice work!!

Patron , the footer is no joke ! Two of the benches are part of an integrated art piece, lots of oak and copper, and in the multi ton range . A special slab with steel tie points is being poured to support the whole thing just off the ground . I fabricated all the components , steel , copper , sculpted oak , in my shop but will not be able to show proprietary pics per agreement with the architect .

WOW! These are some really great benches! Looks like you will a forklift to lift them! Another great endevour, well done!

-- Never board, always knotty, lots of growth rings

Those look like and elephant could sit on them and they wouldn’t move. Speaking of which, I think I would like to get one for mother in law. lol They look great! Good job.
