Thanks for the easy to follow video. I made an almost exact copy for my wife. Mother's Day gift. She loved it. I added a small attached side table for her drink and phone. R/Joe

Outstanding video. Very well presented

Yours looks the simplest to build of all I have just seen after scrolling though pages of them on YT, and it was one of the first I seen. Will downscale the timber sizes and use 80x19mm dressed fence palings for mine as I'll need to lift it to shift it around my deck. Thanks from New Zealand Saffa 👍

Could u provide a little more info on fixing the hinges,You kinda skipped over that . I died to see exactly where they are or where they are attached on both sides. Thanks

I enjoy watching your video. The ply you using looks much nicer than the ones I bought from Builders Express in Mafikeng. Is it a different quality or type as the ones I bought had another of knots on the one side and patched on certain areas. Why do we not get Birch plywood like in Canada or USA with no knots and voids between the layers, or better quality boards. Thanks

Hi Bobby. Normally 18 mm and the 21 mm plywood has knots on one side and clear on the other. Sometimes it is good to check some of the boards and select your preference depending on the project at hand. Andrew sometimes likes the boards with more knots and chooses them on purpose. He calls them "Knotties" :) . The thinner boards (12 mm, 9, 6 and 4 mm) are a much higher quality with a smoother finish too. The 21 mm and 18 mm are a rougher grade. NM

Can you supply a cut and supply list with American measurements?

[@nznegativeions]

noone uses american measurements

[@freedomisfromtruth]

You can convert pretty easily mm to inches in googl parent

[@derekrodriguez5080]

Only countries that have been to the moon use those measurements.

Very well, but I don´t agree with DIY, as you can see, it´s necesary a lot of tools. I dont have these tools at home!!!!
