Very pretty. I’m sure you will get a lot of use out of it. Do you know what type of wood it is? Are you planning on building bench seats to match? What finish do you think you will use on it?

Thorreain, the wood is some type of pine. You can see a picture of the pile of packing timber I found it in here in my blog post:

Also, I ended up finishing it with an oil stain because it will be outside most of the time. I brushed it on and left it for 3 hours, then wiped the excess off with a rag. Turned out great.

You got a decent source of lumber for a while…
