This has been on the back burner for some time. Too many other projects took priority.
However, the big project—expanding Lil SWMBO’s barn—can only be done while at the farm.
Having knocked out the dock bench seating, this seemed like the perfect filler for the several days back in the Treasure Coast.
This baby is 84” X 28” X 1-1/4” thick air dried Florida Cypress with 3/8” thick shiplap panels of cypress. The frame is mortise and tenon; the bottom panel has double tenons.
I’ve just completed all the final cleanup and will be putting a clear finish. Probably going with Cabot’s clear exterior protective sealer. This will bring out, but not change, the natural colors.
