Maple bench

Quite Nice! You really let your artistic imagination take over as you make use of all that might be considered trash or fire wood to others. Thanks for the pics.

There is something about rustic furniture that really hits the mark with me.

Nice work.

Great bench, Monte! You stay busy.

-- I just got done cutting three boards and all four of them were too short. (true story)

I’m sure there is some heft to benches of this style. Nicely done

Great work Monte!. How you drive the grain of the legs so that there is no risk of splitting?

-- Disfruta tu trabajo (enjoy your work)

great job,wish i could get as much done as you do,and as nice as you do.

-- It don't have to be straight,it's just a suggestion!!!

Both the maple and poplar have a lot of “character” and great color! My maple is pretty plain whit and the little poplar I see is green! Someone will snap this one up quick! Raise the prices on these really pretty woods.

Some beautiful maple there Monte ! Hard maple or the good stuff (our Western Big Leaf Maple – just kidding !)?

Monte…You are doing some creative work with those slabs. have you considered carving out the seat like i see on many maloof style rocking chairs?
