Helped a friend tear down part of their deck, my oldest daughter decided she wanted to build a bench.

No she isn’t drinking, she used my Korbel and 7 to demonstrate her cupholders.

She still has some finish work and paint to do, but it’s a functioning bench.

my only suggestion would be to round off the edges of the armrest. otherwise i’m impressed.

She wants to leave them square, but intends to round them so they’re not sharp at least.

Not gonna lie, proud dad moment.

You're clearly doing something right in the dad department.

Awesome stuff.

Rule of home projects  also implies she gets to pick the colour she paints it.

She’s torn between painting it antique white or just leaving it as is.
