Garden Bench
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: David Snediker
The garden bench can be used in all weather thanks to the use of Spanish cedar, marine epoxy, and copper rivets. Snediker, a boat builder by trade, knows the copper rivets will oxidize to a pleasing green color and won’t stain the water-resistant cedar. There are no vertical mortises that will trap water. The mortise-and-tenon joinery is held together with waterproof marine epoxy. The bench is unfinished.

I built this bench years ago when it appeared in the magazine. I no longer have the magazine but would like to build it again. How can I get the plans or the issue in which it appeared?
