I used a Festool track saw but there are other brands like Ryobi.

to design it, start with sourcing the drawer cabinets and work you measurements around them

these are Multistore Solutions flatpack single drawer cabinets from a hardware store. The range is out of production now but there are many other brands.

Thank you!

I live in bushland Australia where there is a very real danger of termites. It's essential to use treated timber for framing here. It is also a very open room all year round.

As long as it does not come in direct contact with food or bare skin, it’s fine to use inside. The chemicals used to treat it are not airborne.

That hasn't been true of treated lumber for 20 or so years. It can be used inside.

Yes, I think it does improve it slightly. It also prevents any moisture damage and is worth doing.

I've had this for over a year and it's hasn't faded at all. The key is to seal it properly.

Thanks for watching!

Thank you!

Thanks! The build is simple once the planning has been through through - working out how to manage the angles of the backrest was the trickiest bit.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks or watching!

I just scored it with a utility knife then snapped it. If I was going to make it again, I'd cut it to fit first. The instructions are on my website www.littleredindustries.com/renovate/2021/5/12/tiled-fireplace-hearth

I've had this for over a year and it's hasn't faded at all. It still looks good. The key is to seal it properly.

@@littleredindustrieshi do you have any issues cleaning the floor with a wet mop and what brand do you recommend to seal?

This still looks great and it hasn't cracked.

It's a Dunlop cement render. The written instructions are on my website littleredindustries.com/howto/2021/11/28/rendered-block-bench

Agreed. It saves a lot of time and money buying the sheets and cutting them down to make the cabinets.

Hi, I used Tasmanian oak panels and dowel from my local hardware store. The varnish is clear, marine-grade called Monocel Gold.

I used off-the-shelf sleepers from a hardware store. Use any, so long as they are thick enough not to bend and will fit through the holes. The written instructions are on my website littleredindustries.com/howto/2021/11/28/rendered-block-bench

Yes, manual sanding is fine! Just make sure that you seal/varnish the timber properly otherwise it will get moisture damage.
