Next Project

My next project is to rebuild an old bench.
The wood was cheap pine when I bought it and rotted fast.  The metal frames are sound.  I will replace the pine with cedar.  That should last 15 years.

And I have a good place to put it facing my fence flowerbed, underneath a a small shady tree.

Or you could use it as a planter and make it a unique decorative feature in the flower garden, and just go buy yourself a new seat! LOL

I was just kidding ya, Mark. I figured that there was no chance of your buying a seat. But I can see you doing something creative with this one to turn it into a planter display of some kind.
