I needed two things at the cabin: A weather resistant bench for the deck, as well as a comfortable couch for indoors. Why not have both? I show you how I made it from scrap wood using no nails or screws, and how I got to use something from my old Aliner camper as well!

Suggested Tools:
Mitre Saw (or hand saw)
Machete (Axe or Draw knife also works for removing bark)
Hammer and Chisel
Reciprocating Saw for knots (or hand saw)
Tenon Cutter (1" or 1/2" preferred)
Power Drill for 1/2" shank
Forstener Bit (same size as tenon, one size down for soft wood)
Flush Cut Saw for pegs
Mallot
Sandpaper and/or Sander (80 grit and 120 grit)
Wood Glue
Polyurethane
Paint Brush

DISCLAIMER: Proper and safe use of tools is essential. Do not attempt if you are not efficient in their use.
