    Love the trick where you hide the screw on the miter joints by chiseling up a part of wood first! I’ve only seen that once before

    Loved the video of you custom made it to the cushions size and adjusted the build as you checked for strength and longevity. This thing isn't going anywhere, but I would definitely used the furniture slides to protect the deck or patio from scratches. Well done!

    Hi there’s a few vids on RUclips showing you how to make a sofa, but I think this is by far the best so I’m going to try and make it. One thing though I didn’t quite catch the size of the wide planks. I know there was 10 4”x 2” used , what was the size of the other? Thanks.

    your calculation for the length of sofa is off. Width of 2 X 4 is around 1.5 inch. so it should be (25.5 * 3) +3 = 79.5 ?
